The Hapless Youth

Look at him and see that he's determined To win the glories now denied; See his zeal and study his will, It is the highest satisfaction he wants to feel. Father of all and the Author of Truth, Look towards him with merciful favor, And guard him from those uncouth, And bless his every toil and endeavor.
