Thou must be true thyself
If thou the truth wouldst teach ;
Thy soul must overflow, if thou
Another's soul wouldst reach :
It needs the overflow of heart
To give the lips full speech.
Think truly, and thy thoughts
Shall the world's famine feed ;
Speak truly, and each word of thine
Shall be a fruitful seed ;
Live truly, and thy life shall be
A great and noble creed.
