Hast thou kept watch and ward
And o’er the buried Land of Fear
So grimly held thy guard?”

Context: Think not so much of what thou hast not as of what thou hast: but of the things which thou hast, select the best, and then reflect how eagerly they would have been sought, if thou hadst them not. At the same time, however, take care that thou dost not, through being so pleased with them, accustom thyself to overvalue them, so as to be disturbed if ever thou shouldst not have them.

Grace and beauty hast Thou given me. ~ 33
