NO TRUER WARMTH HAS LEAPT, by MARY IRENE WARNER

First Line: I think from mortal breast / no truer warmth
Last Line: Toward those who want and faint.
Subject(s): Friendship
I think from mortal breast
No truer warmth has leapt
Than that which stands a test
And to its bond has kept;
Of friendship now I speak,
Through which man walks, a saint,
So gentle, wise, and meek
Toward those who want and faint.
