Alice Duer Miller - An Exhortation to Gentleness

Alice Duer Miller - An Exhortation to Gentleness

You who are strong, and do not know the need br That weaker spirits feel, but do not plead -­ br The need to lean on someone who is strong - br Oh! see you give their silent want good heed. br br Be not so busy with your own career, br However noble, that you cannot hear br The sighs of those who look to you for help, br For this is purchasing success too dear. br br Many strong men and good, I see, so bent br Upon their own souls' high development br That they have only scorn or tolerance br To give to those who are not thus intent.
