O may I join the choir invisible
Of those immortal dead who live again
In minds made better by their presence; live

In thoughts sublime that pierce the night like stars,
And with their mild persistence urge man's search
To vaster issues.

Suppose some fellow, with more zeal than knowledge,
Fresh from St. Andrew's College,
Should nail the conscious needle to the north?

your neighbors if they will let you; and for that reason you must
cultivate, not a spirit of criticism, but the talents that
attract people to the hearing of the Word.
