Advice To My Pupils Before I Withdraw
To conquer you should at both ends the candle burn
By leaps and bounds seek long to sojourn
In the arena of knowledge imbibe from every stream
Lend an ear to your flaws,don't be so swift to overesteem
You would later eventually society confront
Malefactor throngs from all edges affront
The road of success is not of any thorns devoid
Pursue unpretentious learning and haughtiness avoid
Don't your teachers attempt to clone
Make a carbon copy of them or their image atone
We cheatingly have treasured our own strains and weakness
Superbly camouflaged them and denied our faultiness
If despite all,you sense you the plateau reached
Bowing out would quell our gusto to teach.
