By the side of a silvery streamlet	A
That flowed through meadows green	B
Lay a youth on the verge of manhood	A
And a boy of fair sixteen	B
And the elder spake of the future	C
That bright before them lay	D
With its hopes full of golden promise	E
For some sure distant day	D
	-
And he vowed as his dark eye kindled	A
He would climb the heights of fame	F
And conquer with mind or weapon	G
A proud undying name	F
On the darling theme long dwelling	H
Bright fabrics did he build	A
Which the hope in his ardent bosom	I
With splendor helped to gild	A
	-
At length he paused then questioned	A
Brother thou dost not speak	J
In the vague bright page of the future	C
To read dost thou never seek	J
Then the other smiled and answered	A
Of that am I thinking now	K
And the crown which I too am striving	H
To win my ambitious brow	K
	-
What a crown Thou hast spirit brother	C
Say of laurels will it be	L
Thy choice the life of a soldier	C
Undaunted joyous free	L
Though by wind and sun undarkened	A
Is thy blooming boyish face	M
To thy choice thou lt do all honor	C
For tis worthy of thy race	M
	-
Am I wrong Well tis more likely	L
With thy love of ancient lore	N
Thou would st choose the scholar s garland	A
Not laurels wet with gore	N
I ll not chide tis surely noble	O
By mere simple might of pen	P
To rule with master power	C
The minds of thy fellow men	P
	-
But still shook his head the younger	C
What unguessed thy secret yet	A
Ha I know now what thou seekest	A
To deck thy curls of jet	A
Bright buds and he laughing scattered	A
Blossoms on brow and cheek	J
Pleasure s wreath of smiting flowers	Q
Is the crown that thou dost seek	J
	-
Not so of all that were vainest	A
Tis a crown immortal rare	R
Here on earth I must strive to win it	A
But brother I ll wear it there	R
And he raised to the blue sky o er him	S
Eyes filled with tender thought	A
Who shall doubt that to him was given	G
The glorious crown he sought	A
