that the plaintiff was parishoner Of Culfeigbtrin'
and tho defendant parish priest of that parish
and that the plaintiff, as teacher of The Scrip.

ing thereby that the plaintiff was unworthy of the
general society Of the parshioners and that thew

WOUNDING WORDS

wound given by word is oftentimes more
difficult to cure than wound given by sword
Sir Philip Sidney.
The wound may be sharp as the pointed steel,
And long may the sufferer lay
Moaning in grief ere the smart shall heal
Ana the lever pass away;
But In time he may rise in Joyous rlcc
From the restless couch of pain
And walk with spirit light and free
through the bright glad world again.
Hut ah ' there are words of far keener smart
Than those of the lance or sword
When the Utmost depth of the gentle heart
Is pierced by wounding word
L he sufferer seeks not the shaded room,
Nor seems from the world estranred--
But he walks through the world with I. glance of
gloom,
And a spirit sad and changed.
Oh! oft arc the pangs of an outward wound
/ Allayed by assiduous care
The patient lists to the murlnured sound
OF the loved ones fcrvent prayer;
ana ne meets the gaze of anxious eyes,
And he thanks the power that sends,
In his need, the soothing sympathies
OF tender and watchful friends.
But he who is stabbed by wounding word
To no ear his hurt reveals:
Silent he bears it, by shame deferred
From telling the pain he feels;
But LIES fair prospects it seems TO blight
And the voice of hope to qucll;
And 1T comes on his spirit by day and light,
Like mocking maddening knoll.
Alas it is said in a Christian land
That such evil things should be-
And the open warfare of the hand
Methinks would rather see;
Than witness the scenes of moral wrong
w here the strong Cypress the weak
And the stealthv warfare of the tongue
Is waged on the good and meek
Yet none will the probing poisoned dart
At my poor bchest resign,
For the power TO change the cruel heart
Is In higher hands than mine
But the taunts men utter, with harsh intent.
BY a God OF peace are heard
Oh may fie bid offenders in time repent
OF the sin of a woundng word !,
