Speak gently to the erring:
For is it not enough
That innocence and peace have gone,
Without thy censure rough?

The Erring (1844)

Speak kindly to the erring;
Thou yet may'st lead them back,
With holy words and tones of love,
From misery's thorny track.
Forget not thou hast often sinned.
And sinful yet must be;
Deal gently with the erring one,
As God hath dealt with thee.

The Erring (1844)
