I know I will be called upon to make
Things right that others will, ofttimes, forsake,
And I know it will fall to me to take
Up tool or weapon, that task to address.
Already I feel how its weight does press
On me and seek thence further to progress,
And I know I do not suffice to bear
That weight with what it merits for its care;
The strength to do so has been with me ne’er,
As how I act when faced with challenge shows.
I am not one who, beaten back, arose
Again to vanquish they who once opposed,
But by the other fighter was laid out.
Much cause have I my worthiness to doubt.
