THE DREADED TASK by MARGARET E. BRUNER

First Line: I FOUND THE TASK THAT I HAD DREADED SO
Last Line: AND DREAD ONCE CONQUERED MEANS A VICTORY WON.
Subject(s): FEAR; WORRY;

I found the task that I had dreaded so
Was not so difficult when once begun;
It was the dread itself that was the foe,
And dread once conquered means a victory won.
