CHARITY.

We always should he slow TO speak
OF faults we in n ncighbor sec;
We too, are erriug, weak and blind
Perhaps we're even .corsc than he.
Each heart has some hesctting sin,
Each one some bad propensity
Turn, then, our view Of faults 1Cith1Hr
That others faults we may not see.
So scandal shall to friendship change,
And pride become humility:
Strife shall no more our hearts estranEei
Oar lives he crowned with CHARITY.
