Success

How some succeed, who have least need,
In that they make no effort for!
And pluck, where others pluck a weed,
The burning blossom of a star,
Grown from no earthly seed.

For some shall reap who never sow;
And some shall toil and ne’er attain--
What boots it, in ourselves to know
Such labor here is not in vain,
When we still see it so!
