And yet, my dear friend, I’m told in these days,
Religion’s blessed joys are most faithfully felt,
With devotion’s pure prayers the proud heart to melt;
That many have turned to the straight narrow road,
Which leadeth to peace and communion with God.
To you this assurance a welcome will find,
A subject of vital concern to the mind.
When hither you come, do enter our door,
I’ll give you my hand, perhaps something more.
Let me urge, if inclined, to this you’ll reply,
