FULL OF COMPASSION.-PSALM CXI. 2-4.

WHATSOEVER THINGS ARE TRUE, WHATSOEVER THINGS ARE HONEST, WHATSOEVER THINGS ARE

JUST, WHATSOEVER THINGS ARE PURE, WHATSOEVER THINGS ARE LOVELY, WHATSOEVER THINGS
ARE OF GOOD REPORT; IF THERE BE ANY VIRTUE, AND

IF

THERE BE ANY PRAISE, THINK
ON THESE THINGS.-PHILIPPIANS IV. 8.
