But sweet humility points out the way

To happiness, and life, and lasting honours.

Humility how glorious! how divine!

Thus clothed, and thus enrich’d, O may I shine;

Be mine this treasure, this celestial robe,

And let the sons of pride possess the globe.

Mrs. Steele.

HYMN.

And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the Mount of Olives.—Matthew, xxvi. 30.
