“Thus honour gain’d, learn now to gain a friend,
And the sure way is - never to offend;
For, James, consider - what your neighbours do
Is their own business, and concerns not you:
Shun all resemblance to that forward race
Who preach of sins before a sinner’s face;
And seem as if they overlook’d a pew,
Only to drag a failing man in view:
Much should I feel, when groaning in disease,
If a rough hand upon my limb should seize;
