No task was so bard it could baftte their Aud one was I-cnn, and the other I-wlll. l-ean was tall, lithe—all wit, wisdom and With a slightly superl I-will was short, stoi necked anil bold , A terrible fellow where one$ be took held. I-wlll, by himself, had been boastful ami bendy. But tireless I-cnn kept him prudent anil steady. While truly this latter, unyoked from his brother, 1 fenr h ad accomplished much leas than the imlle on his face; red-haired, bull- But take them together!—where'er they m ight go, and obstacles vanished Too-la y Ight l Doubts, danger like snow; From plgmpigmy Iiospnlr stroug-nrmed No foe could withstand the Invincible And surely without thorn the world t stand still.
