By request we copy the following
from the Granville Sentinel written
by L. M. B.
No Account
Its Of no account where 1 was born.
Or i'll descended from peasant or lord
Whether they sat in palaces grand
Or had of earth's goods scanty hoard.
But whether am honest, brave and true,
Is of great account.
Its of small account if l have or not
Delved deep in knowledges mine;
Or If my eyes are blinded to all of the
arts divine.
But whether l soothe, and comfort
and bless,
The weak of earth,
Is of much account.
Its of no account if society's smile
l never seem to win or wear, or in thu
worlds gay joyment
do not have share
But whether l do the best | can
10 strive and uplift my fellow man,
Is of great account.
Its of little account if l possess charm O.
manner, wit, beauty and grace,
Or yet among the meek ones l occupy
The lowliest place.
But whether know and do what i
And keep sweet charity constant guest
Is of great account.
Its of no account if my grave shall be o.
land or beneath the sea;
monument grand to mark the spot
Or simply willow tree.
But whether wear the Victor's crow
And hear at the last the words "wel
done,''
Is of great account.
JAMAICA.
