COMPANIONSHIP by JAMES HERVEY HYSLOP

First Line: LINGER BY ME IN THE TOILS OF LIFE
Last Line: BUT TAKE THE CROSS IN SUNSHINE AND IN RAIN.
Subject(s): FRIENDSHIP; LIFE; PAIN; SUFFERING; MISERY;

LINGER by me in the toils of life,
And while the struggle brings its joy and pain,
Let no doubting mingle with the strife,
But take the cross in sunshine and in rain.
