E'en as myselff or as the Lord abcve? By Christ Himself, to knit the simplest mind, Past controversy, neighbor was defined. "A certain man,' his name it matters not, Fell among thieves; such was his hapless lot The desperadoes took his all and fied, . Leaving him bruised and bleeding, nearly dead. While thus he lay, all woundedrsenseless, sore, A priest went by and calmly Mewed him o'er, Deigned not to help bo great his priestly prWe, So small his soul, he passed the other slde A certain Levite also passed the place, One of a called and chosen priestly ract Be saw the man, but with averted sight Poothed thus his conscience, that it served him right. " One of Samaria's sons next passed along; He saw and pitied, knowing right from wrong. With oil he soothed tb.e poor wounds, and did cheer With wine bis spirits, faint from pam and fear. On his own beast did set him, took him to A neighboring Inn, and something more did do: He called the host, and as bis bill he paid 'Tend well for me this wounded man ,' ho said ; Soon as I come again, believe me, tir, I'll pay whate'er expense he may incur." Now," said the Savior, tell me if you can, Who was a neighbor to this wounded man?" Ah, what a parable was this to choose A sermon full of meaning to the Jews; Full well Christ knew their zeal, That with Samaritans they did not deal; Full well he knew they did not deem them meet To wipe the dust from off their sacred feet; A double purpose, thus, his words supplied To show man" duty and reprove man's pride. Ob, 'tis a lesson f acred and sublime, And always will be to the end of time 'Gainst cool indifference to another's fate, 'Gainst bigotry, that meanest kind of hat; 0 That makes men monsters, foolish, vaini unjust, even of the smallest trust. : Unworthy For what foul wronti must bigotry atonel 8ince Daniel In "the lion's den" was thrown; Since Christ was crucified; and now, Because another Daniel made a vow Unto his God, he must that vow betray, Or in a prison cell tbe forfeifrpay. ; ' Justice and prejudice are not allied, They cannot live together side by side; . Whene'er In chnrch or cou rt a bigot reigns Justice expires, or but exists in chains; For bigotry is so profoundly blind, Outsidltself It nothing good caa find; Integrity as we3 might hide its face, For Dlgetry ncfer ieet a tingle grace;' S weet mercy, sorrowing, folds her pinions t he r e, Where virtue falls how ean she but despair, 0 blgotryl when this fair earth is freed ., ?
