Oh, Conscience! Conscience! Man's Most Faithful Friend,

Through The Sharp Air A Flaky Torrent Flies, Mocks The Slow Sight, And Hides The Gloomy Skies; The Fleecy Clouds Their Chilly Bosoms Bare, And Shed Their Substance On The Floating Air.

A Master Passion Is The Love Of News.

Against Her Foes Religion Well Defends Her Sacred Truths, But Often Fears Her Friends.

In This Wild World The Fondest And The Best Are The Most Tried, Most Troubled And Distress'd.

Men Of Many Words Sometimes Argue For The Sake Of Talking; Men Of Ready Tongues Frequently Dispute For The Sake Of Victory; Men In Public Life Often Debate For The Sake Of Opposing The Ruling Party, Or From Any Other Motive Than The Love Of Truth.
