The Text

The text: Love thou thy fellow man!
He may have sinned;--One proof indeed,
He is thy fellow, reach thy hand
And help him in his need!

Love thou thy fellow man. He may
Have wronged thee--then, the less excuse
Thou hast for wronging him. Obey
What he has dared refuse!

Love thou thy fellow man--for, be
His life a light or heavy load,
No less he needs the love of thee
To help him on his road.
