Giant, tells q story, as we learn from the
Illinois papers, that illustrates in the Lest

The good we may do here.
Speak gently to the little child,
It's love be sure. to gain;
Teach it in accents soft and mild 2

Speak gently to the youth, for they
Will have enough to bear,
Pass through this fife as best they may
IT'S full of anxious care.
Speak gently, for THU canst not tell
Beneath that placid bl ow,
VIII t untold anguish there doth dwell,
Tho,. Oh calm and silent now.

Speak gently, and be ever kind,
To thy associates near,
Speak gently if you wish to find
A lasting friendship here.
