A poem by John Greenleaf Whittier

Conduct

________________________________________________
Title:     Conduct
Author: John Greenleaf Whittier [More Titles by Whittier]

From the Mahabharata.

Heed how thou livest. Do no act by day
Which from the night shall drive thy peace away.
In months of sun so live that months of rain
Shall still be happy. Evermore restrain
Evil and cherish good, so shall there be
Another and a happier life for thee.

1881.
