The following poem is the production of a ten year old boy. We give it to our readers in its crude state, to show how children often idealize this Science thought, thus expressing harmony, even in a slight degree. Coleridge says,—"Poetry is the blossom and the fragrance of all human knowledge, human thought."
If you do not first begin
To love the sin,
But always the Truth to love,
You will surely rise above.
If the Truth you want to learn,
Don't begin it from the stern;
Always begin from its bow,
Then you surely will learn how.
Sin is nothing but error,
And you don't want to be its bearer.
If you want to learn some wealth,
You should get the Science and Health;
Then put on the cross and crown,
And press all the sins you have down.
You must start from a boy,
And all the sin you must destroy.
When Jesus healed the lepers and the sick,
He did it very quick.
Jesus ate the bread of Love,
Which came to him from above.
