Lyics

Blest, who with generous pity glows,

Who learns to feel for other's woes;

Bows to the poor man's wants his ear,

And wipes the helpless orphan's tear.

Compassion dwells within his mind,

To works of mercy still inclined,

Compassion dwells within his mind,

To works of mercy still inclined,

He lends to poor some present aid,

And gives them not to be repaid.
