xc.
For with the few they wisely knew That if their lot was cast In wondrous times when Nature's chimes Were ringing out their last ; When portents rise in Eastern skies, And earth is strewn with signs, The faithful read and meekly heed, Though public faith declines.
xci.
Whene'er they erred by thoughtless word, Or some unguarded deed, Though undesigned, with troubled mind They stanched the wound with speed, The fault confessed with honest breast As open... as the dawn, With naught concealed, but all revealed As in the light of morn.
XCII.

It ne'er grew old, or weak, or cold, By rough winds oft molested, But lasted long, as warm and strong Asf' though untried, untested.
