    (continued from previous page)
    Hold'st to thy breast the lamp
    That with its piercing ray,
    Flushing through river gray,
    Throws tiny beam afar
    Over the tossing(?) bar;
    Guiding the sailors home
    Safe through the ocean foam
    Kindly your gleams inspire
    Thought of their own hearth fire
    Kind hands to tend and care
    Tales of their voyage to share,
    Changing to[?]deep content
    Tired brain and body spent
    Thus do I make of thee
    True type of charity
    Model of Constancy
