Leaving steps. like angel traces.
That mankind may follow still
Fen though scorn's malignant glances
Prove him poorest Of his clan.
He's the noble-who advances
Freedom. and the cause OF man

To one clear harp in divers tones
That men may rise on stepping-stones
OF their dead selves TO higher things.

In conscience as the MONDAY clear;
Think how allseeing God surveys
Thy secret thoughts, thy words, thy

How happy is he born and taught
Who serveth not another's will:
Whose arnor is his honest thought
And simple truth his utmost skill.
I see the perfect law requires
Truth in the inward parts:
Our full consent, our whole desires,
Our undivided hearts.
