HIS PERSONAL HISTOEY 



BY SAMUEL SMILES, LL.D. 



u 



Author of ' Lives of the Engineers,' ' Self- Help,' ' Character,' etc. 



Never hasting, never resting, 

 With a firm and joyous heart, 



Ever onward slowly tending, 

 Acting, aye, a brave man's part. 



Undepressed by seeming failure, 



Undated by success ; 

 Heights attained, revealing higher, 



Onward, upward, ever press.
