COMPASSION AND LOVE. 
I had a little flower, all sad and pale, 
With drooping head ’twas bended to the gale; 
Gently I nursed it with unwearied hand, 
For me no flower so sweet in any land; 
Others were round it, blooming far more fair, 
But that pale flower had stolen all the care. 
I had a little bird, a gent’e thing, 
Silent and sad and wan with folded wing; 
Its feeble note, so tremulous and wild, 
Was like the wail of some heart-broken child; 
And yet I only cherished it the more, 
All closer to my heart my bird I bore. 
’Tis ever thus with all ef earthly things, 
Compassion in its hand, lore always brings; 
The tear, of pity is the smile of love, 
Such tears, such smile3 are wept for us above; 
’Tis ever thus; those that we love the best, 
Are those who give our love no time to rest.
