LINESSUGGESTED BY THE REMARK—"IT IS COOL THIS MORNING."
IT is never cool where'er is felt
An influence like thine,
Encircling like a zone or belt;
The very glaciers would melt
If near thy heart or hand they dwelt,
O'er charities sublime.

The very glaciers would melt
If near thy heart or hand they dwelt,
O'er charities sublime.
It's never cool to meet a friend
Who never framed excuse,
Evading, lest, to condescend,
Appeals would ever him attend;
Or, miserly, his purse defend
With plea of some abuse.

It's never cool to know that such
A one is near to bless;
However small, however much
The gift, 'tis magical to touch,
While we the radiant motive clutch—
The dower in its dress.
