MY FRIEND,
(live me the tlriend with open heart,
with frank and manly brow,
Who scores d asItian's scheming art,
And falsehood's traitor vote.
Av, 0110 that, when tllo world's chill frown
Fell darkly on the soul,
Will lift the spirit up, and crown
With joy life's mantling bowl.
Clive ma the frioud with courage high,
Who knows iio (toward feat/',
And manhood, from his aprlking eye,
Shines out scrono and clear.
Not one that, when detraction's voice
E!tillga as nn addo•'o fang,
Will, soarot, in 011(113 wound (300t00,
And in °telt bitter pang.
One that, when all tho world forsakes,
Wily but the closer oling ;
Who counts alt sacrifice he makes
A0 naught, if p(:ucc it bring.
This io the heart for whish mine yearns,
The friend for whom I pine ;
Tho soul for whom mina ardent burns,
Dear friend, furs 1. nod in thine.
