The Pity Of The Angels.

("Un Ange vit un jour.") [LA PITI' SUPREME VIII., 1881.] When an angel of kindness Saw, doomed to the dark, Men framed in his likeness, He sought for a spark - Stray gem of God's glory That shines so serene - And, falling like lark, To brighten our story, Pure Pity was seen.
