Here’s to a man of three score tml ten,
The morn sad noon of hi-’ life a > e past,
We would fain hold back the eve
Which will surely come at last.
Let us gather the flowers he has sown
Along life's rugged way,
And gladden the fleeting hours
While yet we have the day.
We can see the glorious light
Which guides to the heavenly shore,
Where we are promised peace
And joy for evermore.
We will all have to go,
We cannot tell wh-n,
So all joy to the man
Of three score and ten.
