And meet his danger—James would rather shun

The dangerous trial; but, whenever tried, 40

He all his spirit to the act applied.

Robert would aid on any man bestow, }

James would his man and the occasion know; }

For that was quick and prompt—this temperate and slow. }

Robert would all things he desired pursue,

James would consider what was best to do;

All spoke of Robert as a man they loved,

And most of James as valued and approved.
