Charity of speech is as divine a
thing as charity Of action. To judge
no one harshly, to misconceive no
mans motives. to believe things are
as they seem to be until proven other
wise. to temper Judgment with mer-
cy--surely this is quite as good as to
build up churches, establish asylums
and found colleges. Unkind words
do AS much harm as unkind deeds.
Many a heart has been wounded be-
yond cure, many reputation has
been stabbed to death, by few little
words. There is charity which con-
sists in withholding words, in keep
ing back harsh Judgment, in abstaining
from speech, il to speak is to con-
denim.
