TO DR. .
I know those subtle elements
Thou dost administer,
Have power to stay the parting breath,
The languid pulse to stir.
Thou dost administer,
Have power to stay the parting breath,
The languid pulse to stir.
And not less potent is thy smile,
Thy sympathizing tone,
Thy tender heart that ever makes
The sufferer’s pain its own.
Thy sympathizing tone,
Thy tender heart that ever makes
The sufferer’s pain its own.
