FRAILTY.

Lord, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is; that I may know how frail I am.—Psalm xxxix. 4.

But man with frailty is allied by birth.

Bishop Lowth.

Easily beguiled; to vice, to error prone;

But apt for virtue too. Humanity

Is not a field where tares and thorns alone
