Страница 15 - Entreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee; for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge. Thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God. Where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried. The Lord do so to me, and more also, if aught but death part thee and me.

Why should you not ? If faithful friends are few, And if you seem to be forgot By those you once deemed true, Should...
Страница 11 - Ye know ye may receive relief, Yet sympathy not find ; Then learn to sympathize with grief—- The poorest can be kind. Be kind. If ye are old, Love may not light your eye ; The strongest passion may grow cold, But virtue cannot die. There is respect from youth to you, By God and men assigned ; Let your deportment claim it too : Ye aged ones, be kind.
Страница 32 - A jovial swain may rack his brain. And tax his fancy's might ; To quiz is vain, for 'tis most plain That what I say is right.
Страница 10 - If you are rich, Ye need, indeed, take care ; For God hath given wealth of which The poor should have a share. Ye may be bountiful, but yet To charity be blind ; Ye may give freely, but forget Ye also should be kind. Be kind. If ye are poor, Ye know how kindness smooths The roughest fortunes ye endure, And how it sorrow soothes ; Ye know ye may receive relief, Yet sympathy not find ; Then learn to sympathize with grief — The poorest can be kind.
