The man is great, whatever be his labor,
Who wins the admiratipn at his neighbor.
'- vH' i"
Who, in spite of purse or, Areas or pomp's dominion,
Meets all mankind and wins its good opinion.
That man is vjctor in ljf e'i last December
If but the few his kindliness remember.
True worth is not by genus'fashioned solely,
Great souls are oftenest found among the lowly,
Brilliance of mind and skill of hand may grumble
And lack the glorious courage of the humble.
Fortune by chance upon the shrewd may visit,
But gentleness proclaims the soul exquisite.
Chance may uncover genius, striking blindly,
But 'tis an inward glory to be kindly.

That man is great, whatever be his station,
w no iruiy serves nis iDd, nis home, his nation.
