a sterling Old Poem.


Who shall Judge man from manners?
Who shall Judge him from his dress?
Paupers may be fit for princes
Princes fit for something less.
Crumpled shirts and dirty jacket
May beclothe the golden ore
Oft deepest thoughts and feelings
Satin vests could do no more.
Man, upraised above his fellows,
Oft forgets his fellows then;
Masters-rulers-lo ds-remember
That your meanest kinds are men?
Men by labor, men by feeling.
Men by thought, and men by frame,
Claiming equal rights to sunshine
In mans ennobling name.
There are foam embroidered oceans,
There are little weed-clad rills,
There are feeble inch-high saplings,
There are cedars on the hills
God, who counts by souls, not stations,
Loves and prospers you and me,
For to Him all vain distinctions
Are as pebbles in the sea.
Telling hands alone are builders
OF nations wealth and fame;
Titled laziness is pensioned,
Fed and fattened ON the same,
by the sweat of others foreheads,
Living only to rejoice,
While the poor mans outraged freedom,
Vainly lifteth up his voice
Truth and justice are eternal,
Born with loveliness and light;
Secret wrongs shall never prosper,
While three is sunny right
God, whose world heard voice is singing
Boundless love to you and me,
Sinks oppression with its titles,
AS the pebbles in the sea.
