"Go,just in word,in every thought sincere
Who knows no wish but what the world might hear.
Of gentlest manner,unaffected mind,
Lover of peace and friend of human kind
Composed in sufferings,and in joy sedate
Good without noise,without pretension great.
Go live!for heaven's eternal year is thine
Go!and exalt thy moral to devine."
