Text Appearing After Image:
AMPERED in the lap of luxury, i Raised at breasts of idleness and ease,Borrowing at fearful usury Life so called, so call it if you please,Lived a soul on sinful follies bent Selfishly its time and talents spent. SHE.Struggling to maintain herself and child, Broken-hearted, loaded down with shameOutcast by the world—a leper styled: His the sin, but she must bear the blame,Thus another soul, with anguish mad Seeks in death asylum, oh, how sad ! THE CHILD.Conceived in sin, in shame brot forth— Hapless offspring with shames heritage;Doomed to bitterness een from its birth; Doomed to live in some drear orphanage;Perchance to die—and better far is death When this proud world holds in contempt thy breatl PITFALLS TO SHUN. N nine cases out of ten,the man who hasriches pays too muchfor them. The friendship of the*( world is enmity with God. No church can neglect the poor and betrue to Christ. The fate of Lots wife shows that it isabout as bad to look back as it is to goback.
