OF all the comfort thou canst bring,

How many sad and lonely day,
Far from the happy and the gay,

How many an hour Of 'conveEse sweet
Has elided by with noiseless feet,

The kindly care that seeks to smoothe
The daily path OF those we love,
How could I well without thee prove,
My needle.
When gratitude the gift would prompt
To friendships hand, and means were scant,
Thy ready aid supplied my want, :,
My needle.
And oft when wintry tempests blow,
And sadly mourns the child Of woe,
The power to serve, to thee owe,
