THE LITTLE SCHOLARS.
Reading edition
At your books! A goodly sight! Learn to cipher, read, and write; What you do, do always well; Let your aim be to excel. If you fail, why, try again; Mend your pencil or your pen, Straighten and perfect the line; Make the fine mark still more fine; Make the curve a little better; Let no flaw be in the letter; So by trying you will gain Till perfection you attain.
