From the London Journal, of July 29. The thinking of the
misfortunes of others, and giving succour to the afflicted,
even before they ask, is the most glorious action that can
be performed by a mere human creature . . . [10 lines] In
the time of Scipio [ ] African, the whole Roman people had
noble tenderness for the miseries of other. Latin audience
was not then led away by a loose jest, or idle song; but a
tender [ ] generous sentiment affected uncorrupted [
]ens.
