LXVIII.
[Where rests religion but in sympathy?]
Where rests religion but in sympathy?The wider this the greater is our race;
The claims of others never to deny,
The love of others never to efface.
'Tis the strong unit that can millions blend;
The poor and rich through it are near relations;
It is the tie in which all quarrels end,
The bond of kindly peace among the nations.
Strange temples cover earth and wasted lie!
In these had Nature's service been observed;
Had love of all been hallowed poetry,
Man's attributes had better been conserved.
How little such a philtre heeds its charm,
When one kind act can bitter foes disarm!
