ENDEAVOURS.

And, even should misfortunes come, -- I, here wha sit, hae met wi' some, An's thankfu' for them yet.
They gie the wit of age to youth;
They let us ken oursel';
They mak' us see the naked truth,
The real guid and ill.

Tho' losses, and crosses,
Be lessons right severe,
There's wit there, ye'll get there, Ye'll find nae other where.
