To him a Brother look’d as one to whom,

If fortune frown’d, he might in trouble come;

His Sisters view’d the important man with awe,

As if a parent in his place they saw:

All lived in Love; none sought their private ends: 200

The Dysons were a Family of Friends.

His brother David was a studious boy,

Yet could his sports as well as books enjoy.

E’en when a boy, he was not quickly read,

If by the heart you judged him, or the head.
