To think too highly of ourselves, is unbecoming and ridiculous. Charity, like the sun, brightens all the objects on which it shines. Idleness and ignorance are the parents of many vices and miseries. Persevere in learning, and try to remember what you have learned. Make use of no indecent language; indecency shows want of sense. A spirit of benevolence is considered a godlike virtue; therefore cherish it. It is not only the duty of young persons to be diligent, but it is their interest also. The gay and pleasing are sometimes the most insidious and dangerous companions. Be slow in forming intimate connexions, they may bring you to dishonour and misery. Humility and knowledge, with poor apparel, excel pride and ignorance in costly attire. Time is not our own, but merely lent to us; and a moment lost can never be redeemed. Nothing is better worth the attention of young persons than the acquisition of knowledge. To take sincere pleasure in the prosperity and excellencies of others, is a mark of a good heart. Perseverance in laudable pursuits will reward our labour, and produce effects beyond calculation. True cheerfulness makes a man happy within himself, and promotes the happiness of all around. THE DILIGENT SCHOLAR. Who is he that comes along so briskly with a small basket on his arm? His limbs are strong and active; his cheeks are ruddy, and his countenance is cheerful and good humoured. : It is the diligent scholar he is hastening to school, that he may be there in time. It is very seldom indeed, that he is a minute after the time fixed, either in the morning, or in the afternoon. He never misses going to school when his parents tell him to go. He is not afraid of summer's heat, or winter's cold, or of a little snow or rain. His teacher tells him that he should be very regular in attending school, in order that he may learn well and quick; and he always likes to please and oblige his teacher and to do as he desires. He never goes to school with dirty hands or face, or long nails, or uncombed hair. His clothes are all whole, and he keeps them as neat and clean as he can : nor does he ever play truant, or keep company with bad children. During school time he always sits, or stands in his own place; and he never goes out of the school without his teacher's leave. He reads no book at school but such as his teacher tells him to read. He is very careful not to spoil or hurt any thing, or put any thing out of its proper place. When strangers come into the school he does not stare rudely at them; he minds his business, and if they speak to him he answers them very civilly. He never talks, or whispers to his school-mates for that, he knows, would |
