KINDNESS, by FREDERIC ROWLAND MARVIN Poet's Biography
First Line: Whose eye with melting pity flows

Subject(s): Kindness
First Line: Whose eye with melting pity flows
Last Line: And what thou givest shall be thine.
Subject(s): Kindness
WHOSE eye with melting pity flows,
His life is like a summer rose;
But he whose ready hands are kind,
A father's is to love than weep,
And better far to work than sleep;
For human kindness is divine,
And what thou givest shall be thine.
