VTho shall judge a man from manners I Who shall know him bv his dress 1 Pauyers may he fit for princes. Princes fit for something less. Crumpled shirt and dirty jacket May beclotbe the golden ore Of the deepest thoughts and feelings— Satin could do no more. There are springs of crystal neetar Eyer welling out of stone j There are purple buds aod golden, Hidden, crashod and overgrown ; God who counts by soul-, not dresses, Loves and prospers you and me, tVbile he values thrones, the highest. But as pebbles in the sea. Men upraised above his fellows, Oft forgets his fellows then, Masters, rulers lords, remember That your meanest kind are men, Men by labor, men by leeling, Men by thought, and men by fame, Claiming equal rights to sunshine. In a mans ennobling name. There are foatr-embroidered oceans, There are little web-elad rills. There are feeble inch-high saplings. There are cedars on tbo bill ; God. who counts by souls, oot station. Loves and prospers you and me ; For, to Iliin, all vain . istinctions, Are as pebbles in the sea, Toiling hands alone are builders ; Of a nation's wealth or fame ; Tiltled laziness is pensioned, Fed an t fattened on the same ; By the sweat of others' foreheads, Living only to rejoice, While the poor man's outragod freedom Vainly littcd upjits voice, Truth and justice are eternal, Born with loveliness and light, Secret v.rungs shall never prosper, While there is a sunny right ; God, whose world heard voice is sing:ng Boundiese love to you and m> .
