To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Xiii. 19.
(33) 1 Kings xxi. 21.
(35) Esth. Iii. 9, 10, and vii. 9, 10, TRIAL OF VIRTUE. 75 4 Unfeeling men, ungen'rous as unjust, In doubtful case, to implicate the worst When friendship calls, and tender pity pleads, Tc stop your ears, and rush where censure leads. If once your soul were in my wretched stead, I too, as well might laugh and shake my head ; My visage lengthen, in contemptuous view, And cry out, hyfiocrite, as well as you ; Pour forth invectives, with unbridled tongue, And rail a...nd rant, like you, or right or wrong. Would this be candid, catholic ? I ask No downright bigotry without a mask. 'Tis base, to cause a fallen foe to bleed A suff'ring friend to pierce, is vile indeed. Of all hypocrisy, I most detest A simp'ring visage, and a rankling breast, Where storms and sunshine, light and darkness meet, And stabs and kisses, in succession greet.
5 Could I thus act thus treat my friend, or foe, With your unfeeling, barb'rous harshness ? No - My heart would bleed, with sympathetic grief, My eyes vent pity, and my hands relief ; With heav'nly comfort, would I cheer his soul, Bind up his wounds, and make the broken, whole.
