"O! ye better souls, / Ye nobler few, who slumber in your race, / Tho' well begun, and forwarded with hope, /  Say, will you see a fellow-spirit lost, / Thus swallow'd in the ever-yawning gulf, / That frights the mental eye, and e'en appals / The man who firmest stands, nor lend your aid / To save him, as a soul once meant for Heaven?"
To Mr. R---,  ON HIS Benevolent Scheme for rescuing Poor Children from Vice and Misery, by Promoting Sunday Schools [from Poems on Several Occasions]
