Of Moral Preacher—yet they all agreed,

Whatever error had defiled his creed,

His life was pure, and him they could commend,

Not as their guide, indeed, but as their friend; 30

Truth, justice, pity, and a love of peace,

Were his—but there must approbation cease;

He either did not, or he would not see,

That, if he meant a favourite priest to be,

He must not show, but learn of them, the way

To truth—he must not dictate, but obey.
