May 7

“In vain Remorse, and Fear, and Hate
Beat with bruised hands against a fate,
Whose walls of iron only move
And open to the touch of Love.
He only feels his burdens fall,
Who, taught by suffering, pities all.”

WHITTIER

“Kind hearts are here, yet would the tenderest one
Have limits to its mercy; God has none,
And man’s forgiveness may be true and sweet,
But yet he stoops to give it. More complete
Is Love that lays forgiveness at thy feet,
And pleads with thee to raise it. Only Heaven
Means crowned, not vanquished, when it says
‘Forgiven!’”

A. A. PROCTOR

“The more worthy any soul is, the larger is its compassion.”

Lord BACON
