If man with his fellow in kindness would live , And make life but one bright round of pleasure , Would taste the enjoyment that friendship can give , And of happiness reap the full measure ; Then of mutual benev'lence he should sow the seed , His dissent from 02 ) inions should smother ; And no matter the country , no matter the creed , Man to Man act as Brother to Brother .
Though the Negro may differ from me in his tint , The hue of his blood I ' m not heeding : Shall we pass by a book that ' s in black-letter print , Howe ' er it be good for man ' s reading ? The outside is nought , for true feeling ' s within , Be he good , I can wish for none other : Let , no matter the difference in colour of skin , Man to Man act as Brother to Brother .
If I find a real friend shall I ask him his creed , And shall I if we differ refuse him ? Shall I trample the flower because of the weed , And shall I for opinion ' s sake lose him ?
