Do you wish the world were better?
   Let me tell you what to do.
Set a watch upon your actions,
   Keep them always straight and true.
Rid your mind of selfish motives,
   Let your thoughts be clean and high,
You can make a little Eden
   Of the sphere you occupy.
                                                             Wishing.
