But she, good Sir, must be forgiven. For Charity's the child of Heaven. If we would calmly pass along, Nor tempt the jostling of the throng, As in this crowded world we live. We must forget and must forgive. You will by active duty teach The doctrines you to others preach : Nor fail to hold up to their view The lesson and th' example too. To-morrow she shall make amends. When you shall kiss her and be friends." Syntax. " Forgive her ? aye with all my heart, For that is every Christian's part : ...IN SEARCH OF CONSOLATION 135 But noy I never shall forget The kickiogs I am in her debt» And all her kissing I oppose, 1 She's mischiePs self and my bruis'd toes > Tell me, that she may snap my nose.*' J Madam now gave her needfid aid, The opodeldoc was display 'd, And busy in her healing scheme. The Doctor's feet receiv'd the stream Of oily fluids, to allay The tumours rising from the fray. This she perform'd with tender grace. When Pat appear'd with batter'd face, And, as she did the poultice spread.
