He ll soften, though, a crumb or so if money s to be lent And some poor strugglin devil comes to time with ten per cent. He is flingin and is dingin first at this and then at that, And to ev ry reputation gives a cuff or kick or slat; Pretty lately he was spewin sland rous gossip he had heard, JUST HUMAN NATURE 137 And our minister was passin . Wai, the elder he was stirred And he says, " Ah, Brother Bowler, if you d lived in Jesus time When they brought to him the woman whom they d taken in he...r crime, That story in the Scriptures would have took a diff rent tone, For I s picion if you d been there you d a up and thrown the stone. Yes, I reckon that the woman would have sartin been a goner, For you d thrown the rock and that hain t all ! You d a thrown one with a corner ! " Wai, ye d think a dig of that sort would have shamed him ha f to death, But, Land o Goshen, neighbor, hain t no mor- tifyin Seth! Jest a waste of breath To jab at Uncle Seth, He s holler where the soul should be hain t got no human peth.
