And muckle they may grieve We.
For care and treusle act your thought,

And a. your views may come to nought,
While every nerve is strained.
Ill nae say men are villains e.:
The real, harden'd wicked
Who hae no check bot human law.
Are TO few restricted.
Bot och, mankind are unco weak,
Amd little to be trusted;
Al set the wavering balance shake,
ltsrarely right unjusted
Yet they who fa' in fortunes strife.
Their fate we should ma censure;
For ,,'il tn important end of life
They equally may answer.

Tho Poortish hourly Stare him
A man may take neebor's part,
