NOBILITY OF HEART.

By Eliza H. Morton

He who can suffer wrong and still Be calm, and gentle, kind, Has in his heart that which some seek And seeking never find; ’Tis not the common throng that thus Stand on the plains above, But here and there a loyal one Whose every thought is love.

And why not found by all who seek? Because ’tis sought within— ’Tis sought where wickedness abounds,— In self, and self is sin. Nobility of heart must come From heaven’s own lofty throne, And only by repentant ones Is truly sought and known. ELIZA H. MORTON.
