166. Thou Must Be True Thyself

1 Thou must be true thyself
If thou the truth wouldst teach;
Thy soul must overflow if thou
Another’s soul wouldst reach:
The overflow of heart it needs
To give the lips full speech.

2 Think truly, and thy thoughts
Shall the world’s famine feed;
Speak truly, and each word of thine
Shall be a fruitful seed;
Live truly, and Thy life shall be
A great and noble creed.
