Oh yes—we’ll seek the dreary cell,

Where helpless penury retires;

Affliction’s morbid glooms dispel,

And kindle Hope’s extinguish’d fires.

Grateful for every blessing sent,

We’ll strive that blessing to impart;

And with the balsam of content

Restore to joy the wounded heart.

Thus every pleasure sweetly shar’d

A more delightful form shall wear,
