And touched the hearts of those

The vail OF orphans woes.

/ The gratitude We owe.
And wish. by words, 90 bring 90 view
How far your hounties go.
/ Replenished now, our Scantv stores
Have been by YOU, our Friend.
! And when your stream uf bounty pours,
/ Then hunger sorrows end.
/ And Joy has place instead Of woe,
And smiles instead OF tears.
How great the change, those only know
/ Who've felt the Orphans cares.
Blessed are the merciful for they
Shall mercy sure obtain;
/ So spske our Lord. aud now to-day
We feel the words not vain.
I They strike our hearts with double POWEE
/ In seeing here our friend,
! Who gave 70 as lu need, dark hour:
To God such givers lend.
But words are weak TO tell the jov
That now Ger flows our hearts
A we these feeble words employ,
Without the poets arts
! We would express the Orphans prayer,
For timely blessings given
That generous friends may meet us, where
Blessed Masous are,-iu Heaven

To aid their fcllow-man:
