SUNDIAL MOTTOES 173 



43 



If thou wouldst make thy hf e sublime 

 Then make a friend of Father Time. 



44 

 The hours of the day I tell 

 Stay, stranger, dost thou half so well? 



45 

 If you would have a garden fair plant seeds 

 Of worth and eagerly cast forth the weeds. 



46 

 Without the sun my hours thou canst not see 

 Let wisdom shine upon the hours with thee. 



47 

 Friend, though my pace seems slow 

 The day will come when swift my steps shall 

 go! 



48 

 Daybreak to eventide, 

 Time by my side ! 



49 

 And dost thou know the secret of the flow'rs? 

 Then canst thou hope to know that of the 

 hours?
