S., Inventor of the Non-Explosive Gunpowder Process, Etc;, Etc;, And Founder of the South Devon and Cornwall Institution for the Instruction and Employment of the Blind When I consider how my light is spent E´er half my days in this dark world and wide, And that one talent which is death to hide, Lodg´d with me useless, though my soul more bent To serve therewith my Maker, and present My true account, lest He returning chide; Doth God exact day labour, light deny´d, I fondly ask? but patience to prevent That murmur soon replies, God doth not need Either man´s work or his own gifts; who best Bear his mild yoke, they serve Him best: his state Is kingly; thousands at his bidding speed, And post o´er land and ocean without rest; They also serve who only stand and wait.
