" TRY AGAIN "

Tis a lesson you should heed,
Try again ;
If at first you don't succeed,
Try again ;
Then your courage should appear,
For if you will persevere,
You will conquer, never fear,
Try again.

Once or twice, though you should fail,
Try again ;
If you would at last prevail,
Try again ;
If we strive, 'tis no disgrace
Though we do not win the race ;
What should we do in that case ?
Try again.

If you find your task is hard,
Try again ;
Time will bring you your reward,
Try again ;
All that other folk can do,
Why, with patience, may not you ?
Only keep this rule in view,
Try again.
