G O : PAK.M LIFE. aw ye the farmer at las plow, As ye were riding by? Or wearied, 'neath the noon-day toil, When the summer suns were high ! And thought you that his lot wa3 hard, And did you thank your God hat you and yours were not condemned Thus like a slave to plod? Come see him at his harvest home - When garden, field and tree. Conspire with flowing store to fill His barn and granary; , His heaithful children gaily sport ' Amid the new mown hay, Or proudly aid with vigorous arm His tasks as best they may. The Harvest Giver is is friend, The Maker of the soil, And earth, the mother, gives them bread, And cheers their patient toi!; Come join them around their wintry hearth, The heartfelt pleasures see, And you can better judge how blest The Farmer's life may be.
