Should you thing an humble attempt to paraphrase the
beautiful soliloquy to Humanity in your edition of "The
History of Sir George Ellison, " p. 33. would be acceptable
to any of your readers; you are welcome to publish the
following from [signed] B.
O sweet humanity benign,
Thou Heav'n born principle in man!
Delightful source of bliss divine,
Whence love and joy and peace began.
. . . [4 verses]
Thy footsteps lead thro' pious ways
To taste religion's ample feast,
To join in blissful songs of praise,
And sit in Heav'n a welcome guest.
. . . [1 more verse]
