TO F----S S. O----D

Thou wouldst be loved?--then let thy heart

From its present pathway part not:

Being everything which now thou art,

Be nothing which thou art not.

So with the world thy gentle ways, 5

Thy grace, thy more than beauty,

Shall be an endless theme of praise,

And love--a simple duty.
