John Bartlett (1820–1905). Familiar Quotations, 10th ed. 1919.

Alfred Austin. (1835–1913)

Is life worth living? Yes, so long
As there is wrong to right.

Is Life worth living.

    So long as faith with freedom reigns
  And loyal hope survives,
And gracious charity remains
  To leaven lowly lives;
While there is one untrodden tract
  For intellect or will,
And men are free to think and act,
  Life is worth living still.

Is Life worth living.
