Teach me to feel anothers' woe / To hide the faults I see / That mercy I to others shew / That mercy shew to me / To be resigned when ils betide / Patient when favors are denied / And pleasd with favours giv'n / Most surely this is wisdom's part / This is that insense of the heart / Whose fragrance smells to heav'n. (Note: by Nathaniel Cotton 1707-1788) / Anne Margaret / Hodgson / (On L): Anno 1 8 1 0 (On R): Domina //
