I've Been Thinking.

I've been thinking, I've been thinking,
What a glorious world were this,
Did folks mind their business more
And mind their %ncighbors less,
For instance, you and my friend
Are sadly prone to talk
Of matters that concern us not
And others follics mock.
I've been thinking if We begin
To mend our own affairs.
That possibly our ncighbors might
Contrive to manage theirs;
We've faults enough AZ home II mend,
1t may be so of others,
1t would seem strange ifit were not,
Since all mankind arc brothers.
Oh would that we had charity
