The fisher who draws in his net too soon,
渔夫太快收网，
Won't have any fish to sell;
什么鱼也没捕到；
The child who shuts up his book too soon,
小孩过早合上书，
Won't learn any lessons well.
哪课都学不好。
If you would have your learning stay,
如果你想记住学到的知识，
Be patient,—don't learn too fast:
耐心——不要学得太匆忙；
The man who travels a mile each day,
一个人每天走一英里，
May get round the world at last.
总有一天会走遍世界。
