’Tis thou point’st out the unerring way;

If judgment float on wavering wings,

In notions vague of men and things;

If different views my mind divide,

Thy nod instructs me to decide.

My pliant soul ’tis thou can’st bend,

My help! companion! wife! and friend!

When, in the irksome day of trouble

The mental eye sees evils double,

Sweet partner of my hopes and fears!
