Pesevere
by unknown author
The fisher who draws in his net too soon,
Won't have any fish to sell;
The child who shuts up his book too soon,
Won't learn any lessons well.
If you would have your learning stay,
Be patient-don't learn too fast;
The man who travels a mile a day,
May get round the world at last.
