An Ode to all Mankind.
BY j. C. YOUNG, NJ. d.

All We who suffer, ponder whilst you read,
As tits your case alone not mine, plead.
Ye who have felt, or feel them, know the pangs
Mans doomed to bear, when the remorseless fangs
OF dire disease is fasten'd in his soul
When he would seek the dagger" or the Bowl"
To end his misery by the potent spell
OF deadly poison, or the polished steel.
Ye who have writhed and groand from night to morn.
Cursing the hour that ye were born!
Seeking your pillow thinking to find ease,
Then wildly rushing forth to court the breeze,
Hoping 'twoud quench the flames that madly burnd
In ev'ry vein, If your blood were turnd
70 molten lava \!
To him who hath felt this,
need not speak, as he knows what it is.
But such only feel the incipent spark,
Should read this DER, and ev'ry sentence mark
Upon the tablets of their memory,
As may tell how he'll tomorrow be. .r. d
But all should know, in dark aflictons hour,
Where to apply to one who has the power
10 ease their pain, so prompt They'd think my hand
Must surely grasp Necromancer's wand,
Like some good Genii of the olden time,
Whose cvry act bespoke his power sublime.
Within this city-throughout all the State,
In cv'ry town and hamlet small great,
Some can be found who know the power WELD.
Having tried t-know it was to the a shield
Stronger than that which Achilles of yore,
Upon Scamanders banks, in battle bore.
They know il sav'd them from the blush Of shame,
Preserved their health, and dcarer far their name,
For who'd confess the pain that spoiled his rest
Sprang from Il source impure, to say the least.
Nc suffering thousands who may read this o'er,
REMEMBER, ] ALONE can you restore
Tc health and usefulness.
That you may know
have the and power for doing so,
here will state Let each note what say.
My motto always is-NO CURE NO PAY.
I'm found with ease, my names ev'ry tongue.
