went 10 pieces on their enemy's shores.
Life has little variety in Shetland. All the

knitters and farmers. Incidentally, they dig and

Who causes sunny smiles TO grow
Where none We're known before;
Or makes ones cup of joy O'erflOw
When sorrows at his door;
Who kindleS in anOtherS breast
A bright and healthful glow
That generous soul. by Heaven blest,
Will rare enjoyment know.
Who meets along lifes rugged road
A traveller, wan and worn,
Bending beneath a heavy load.
Friendless, perchance fOrlorn.
And offers now a cheering word
And then a helping hand
Has in two hearts emotions stirred
That will Heavens praise command.
Who sees a brother in the path
That leads to sin and shame.
Indifferent to impending wrath
And careless OF his name.
And guides him in the better way
Gods way of life and peace
Will see the light of perfect day
Shine round him and increase.
