To Mercy Pity Peace and Love All pray in their distress, And to these virtues of delight Return their thankfulness. For Mercy Pity Peace and Love Is God our father dear. And Mercy Pity Peace and Love Is Man his child and care. Then every man of every clime That prays in his distress Prays to the human form divine: Love Mercy Pity Peace. And all must love the human form In heathen, Turk, or Jew. Where Mercy, Love and Pity dwell There God is dwelling too.

Gratitude, in itself, is heaven.

In seed time learn, in harvest teach, in winter enjoy.

And we are put on earth a little space, That we may learn to bear the beams of love.

Execution is the chariot of genius.

Those who restrain their desires, do so because theirs is weak enough to be restrained.

Where cheating is, there's mischief there.
