To warm their little loves the birds complain : I fruitless mourn for him who cannot hear.
And tceep the more because I wecj) in vain ! ' Yet, blessed be God, there is a solace for every grief, a balm for every wound, and hope in every be- reavement.
It is not for me, on this occasion, to attempt to pay that full tribute to the memory of our beloved and cherished friend, which he so justly deserves. Y"et I may be permitted to say that Boston, of its many hon- ored and lamented citizens, has nev...er yet lost one to whom the language of the poet was more applica- ble— * An honest man's the noblest work of God. ' His integrity stood like the Alps ; his benevolence was extended, diffusiv^^, overflowiiig like the Nile ; his philanthropy broad as the whole earth. Ilis per- sonal independence and moral courage were equal to any emergency : he asked not what was popular, but only what was right. Simple and unjjretending in his manners, unselfish in his aims, and transparent as a perfect mirror, he sought no distinction, and desired no conspicuity.
