/ the IlHnt.
From Gil Bias.

Once upon time Bishop had.
To help him work a worthy lad,
A skilled amanuensis, bright,
Who though employed to only write,
Would often read to him Mt night,
For the good Bishops eyes were ailing,
In fact his body all, was failing,
Which he began, at last to find,
Was telling upon his mind.
SO to the youth, one day, he said:
81 sometimes fear failing head,
And In my sermons, think | see,
Some signs of it in some degree,
And as you are just fresh from college,
And for your years are full OF knowledge,
! wish that you would tell me when,
show n failing brain or pen,
And aid me with your youthful mind,
Whenever you such weakness find"
10 which the youth gave glad consent,
With willing mind and good intent;
So, for the Bishop soon. one day,
lie sought critics roll to play,
And pointed out some parts, he said,
Where great improvements might be
made.
Thus speaking of sermon strong,
That well had served the Bishop long;
AT once the Bishops eyes looked fire,
lie felt, but did not tell his ire;
But ire. perhaps, is not the word,
To mark the thoughts his bosom stirred;
But modification and chagrin
Can both be felt without sin.
Now, these and more, the Bishop felt,
As there in wordy blows he dealt,
Denying faults the young man found,
Contained within his sermon sound,
For which, he said, there was no ground,
And then he opened wide his door,
In which the youth was seen no more;
So, "over the hills and far away"
The young man "tramped" for many n
day.
To learn, no doubt, when he grew wise.
The difference 'twixt giving and taking
advice. NJ
