There’s a chanoe fur the
ever su brave,
On the held of hi* glory i
grave;
There's another chance Ion, that
safe inij come back,
With av*n load ul laurels, of rupee*
a—lack.
There'* a chance for the lawyer to live
by bis wit*,
And a chance fur the gambler to lire
by his hits;
There’s another chance too that a gam*
bier may lose,
And the neck of a lawyer find room rr
u noose.
There's a chunee for the sailor a prize
ship to lake,
And a chance that a whirlwind may
come in hi* w kej
There's a chanee for the ocean a trea
sure to win,
And a chance too that Neptuno may
have it again.
There’s a chunee for mechanics to live
by tht'ir trade,
And another chance too that (heir bill*
won't be paid;
There's a chance for the sexton to live
by the dead,
And a chance that he sometimes goes
hu»gry to bed.
Theres a ehanec for the doctor ?o live

And a chance that old bare-bones the

There’s a chance for the drunkard to
live on good wine,
And a chance that the hangman may

There’s a chance for the poet to starve
on his rhymes*
And a chance for the veteran to beg in

There’s a time and a chance for all

To him that is wretched, and him fui.

But of chances and times iu the world

And I’ve travelled Sf travelled it more

As the chance ofsubscribers the PRIN*
