True man who dons a holy face, 
And with a holy tone 
Denounces all the human race 
Whose creed is not his own. 
No matter what his creed may be, 
Betrays a narrow mind, 
And sees not what he seems to see, 
And honors not his kind. 
To arrogate superior airs 
Of sense and moral health, 
And preach or teach that he who dares 
To difler from yourselfj 
Is -in-diseat ed and bound for hell 
While yon are bound for heaven, 
Proves sot that you are safe and well, 
Nor proves him unforgiven. 
Whatever else we may presume, 
Men can be only men, 
And should not flauntingly assume 
To have an angel’s ken ; 
Which puny-sighted bigots do, 
In reverential ways, 
And it suffices them in lieu 
Of sense, and sometimes—grace.
