Poems of Home: II. For ChildrenTry Again
Anonymous’T
Try, try, try again;
If at first you don’t succeed,
Try, try, try again.
Try again;
If you would at last prevail,
Try again.
If we strive, ’t is no disgrace
Though we may not win the race;
What should you do in that case?
Try again.
Try again;
Time will bring you your reward,
Try again.
All that other folks can do,
With your patience should not you?
Only keep this rule in view—
Try again.
