KINDNESS
True kindness sets no price upon itself,Nor can it be with earthly coin repaid;And whoso barters deeds to heap his pelfMust ever be the loser by his trade!
Kindness doth meet its need supplyingly;—This the relation each to each sustains;And he who gives himself in ministryDoth fill all earth and Heaven with his gains!
