A Sentiment [Medical Poem]
by
O Bios Bpaxus,–life is but a song;
H rexvn uakpn,–art is wondrous long;
Yet to the wise her paths are ever fair,
And Patience smiles, though Genius may despair.
Give us but knowledge, though by slow degrees,
And blend our toil with moments bright as these;
Let Friendship’s accents cheer our doubtful way,
And Love’s pure planet lend its guiding ray,–
Our tardy Art shall wear an angel’s wings,
And life shall lengthen with the joy it brings!
