    I venerate the man whose heart is warm,
    Whose hands are pure, whose doctrine and whose life,
    Coincident, exhibit lucid proof
    That he is honest in the sacred cause.

The proud he tam'd, the penitent he cheer'd:
Nor to rebuke the rich offender fear'd.

The proud he tam'd, the penitent he cheer'd:
Nor to rebuke the rich offender fear'd.

For this by rules severe his life he squar'd:
That all might see the doctrines which they heard.
