To get he had tried,yet his store was still meager.To a wise man he cried,in a voice keen and eager;Pray tell me how I may successfully live?And the wise man replied,”To get you must give.”As to giving he said,”What have I to give?”I’ve scarce enough bread,and of course one must live;But I would partake of Life’s bountifulstore. Came the wise man’s response;”Then you must give more.”The lesson he learned;to get was forgotten,Toward mankind he turnedwith a love new begotten.As he gave of himself in useful living,Then joy crowned his days,for he grew rich in giving.
