A benevolent man was Absalom Bess--
At each and every tale of distress
He blazed right up like rocket;
He felt for oil who meath poserty's smart
Were doomed to bear life's toughest part.
He felt for them in his inmost heart,
But never felt In his pocket.
Yet all said he was an excellent man;
For the poor he'd preach, for the poor he'd plan;
To better them he was willing;
But the Oldest one who had heard him pray,
And preach for the poor in pitiful way,
Coulda't remember, exactly, to say
He had ever given shilling.
o. an excellent man was Absalcrn Bess
And the world threw up its hands to bless
Whenever his name was mentioned;
But he died one day, he did, and o!

Where all are bound. fear to go,
