Pringle.

Strange scenes, strange men, untold, untried distress;

Pain, hardships, famine, cold, and nakedness,

Diseases; death, in every hideous form,

On shore, at sea, by fire, by flood, by storm;

Wild beasts, and wilder men:—unmoved with fear,

Health, comfort, safety, life they count not dear,

May they but hope a Saviour’s love to show,

And warn one spirit from eternal woe:

Nor will they faint, nor can they strive in vain,
