From the Newark Daily Advertiser
Deal Gently.

Deal Gently.
DYE. c.R.
Deal gently with the suffering,
And freely let tears fall
His plant seems greater than his wo-
Perchance thou know'st not all
Thou hast but seen the weapon hurled
The poison of that dart
None saw, save God, twas only felt
BY one poor, throbbing heart
Deal gently with the suffering
He CREDIT may be true
Yet stay reproach when God corrects,
Man need not punish too,
Perhaps he did not err--thy sight
Issnort-judge not so fast
A crystal soul may wear the shade
Suspicion there hath cast.
Deal gently with the suffering
Moi half the ct0Se is known
That bitter fount which feedeth tears,
The heart can know alone.
The world but griefs outside beholds;
o, God the inside strife
Is only guessed ut when it rends
In twain the thread of life.
Deal gently with the suffering!
He murrnurs--art thou sure
That in like sorrow thine own soul
Unmurmuring would endure9
What in thine ear as murmurs seem,
In Gods may be, but means
The utterance Of anguish which
Can only pray in groans.
Deal gently with the suffering
Be cautious TO reprovei
There's gaul enough within his wound
Pour there the balm of love-
One drop of sympathy sincere
A lake OF tears may calm
IT'S oil upon the troubled wave
Pour pour the precious balm.
