MORE BLESSED TO GIVE.

Is thy cruise of comfort failing? Rise and share it with another, And through all the years of famine, It shall serve thee and thy brother.

Love divine will fill thy storehouse, Or thy handful still renew; Scanty fare for one will often Make a royal feast for two.

For the heart grows rich in giving All its wealth is living grain; Seeds which mildew in the garner, Scattered, fill with gold the plain.

—Elizabeth Rundle Charles.
