No lines of beauty can we trace 
In thy sweet, quiet, placid face ; 
No rosy cheeks, no sparkling eyes, 
Present themselves for beauty’s prize. 
No costly gems entwine thy hair; 
TJpon thy neck no jewels rare ; 
Though simply clad in lowly guise, 
Thou art quite lovely in our eyes. 
The ornament which thou dost wear, 
With which no other can compare, 
Is thy sweet temper, quiet, meek, •. 
Which God himself has hid thee seek. 
And in his sight, ’t is of more worth, 
Than all the richest gems of earth ; 
Their dazzling beauty time may mar,— 
Thine will shine ever, like a star.
