By the Editor.
Written on the publication of the Four Hundred and Thirtieth Thousand
Only a few short years have sped
Since I this work of love begun;
By thousands sought, by millions read,
All their approving smiles I've won.
Now, while reflecting on the past,
My day of life seems closing in,
Let me, while powers of reason last,
"Enquire Within,"Oh, ye—who gentle are and fair—
Who to these modest pages turn,
To raise a smile, to soothe a care,
Or some moot point of duty learn,—
Forget not this: that whilst you live,
Your hearts may yield to pride or sin,
Take, then, the warning here I give,—
"Enquire Within."Would you acquire the greatest peace—
The sweetest joy—this world can give?
Bid hatred, pride, and envy cease,
And learn a Christian's life to live;
Each eve, before your eyelids close,
And slumbers of the night begin,
That your own heart may find repose,
"Enquire Within."
