KIND WORDS.

A little word in kindness spoken,
A motion or tear,
Has often heard the heart that's broken,
And made friend sincere.
A word-a look-has crush'd to earth
Full many budding flower.
Which had a emile. but own'd ito birth,
Would bless LIES darkest hour.
Then deem it not an idle thing
pleasant word to speak,
The face you wear, the thoughts you bring,
Aheart may heal or break.
