CRY OF THE LITTLE PEOPLES.
The cry of the Little peoples went up to God in vain ; The Czech, and the Pole, and the | Finn, and the Schleswig Dane. ■We ask but a little portion of the . green, ambitious earth ; , Only to so v.- and sing and reap in the land of our birth. , We ask not coaling stations, nor posts in the China seas, j We leave to the big child nations : such rivalries as these. ! We have learned the lesson of time, . and we know three things of ; worth ; ' Only to sow and siug and reap in the loud of our birth. —Richard Le Gallienne.
