GRATITUDE FOR BLESSINGS. 103 



" What blessings thy free bounty gives, 

 Let me not cast away, 

 For God is paid when man receives ; 

 T' enjoy is to obey." 



He will also do well to remember that 



" The boast of Heraldry, the pomp of pow'r. 



And all that beauty, all that wealth e'er gave, 

 Await alike th' inevitable hour ; 

 The paths of glory lead but to the grave/'
