OF unpretentious mien,
Where hands of poverty Cypress
The lives of those within?
An, no, tbs no material thing,
The place with men call home;
'Tis not the peasants humble cot,
Nor princes lofty dome.
'Tis cheer and comfort, warmth and
light,
A place where power divine
Descends, and ever willing waits
To bless your heart and mine.
