Far other aims his heart had learned to prize,

Sat by his fire and talked the night away,

坐在他的火爐邊，交流了一個(gè)晚上

Wept o'er his wounds, or, tales of sorrow done,

Shouldered his crutch, and showed how fields were won.

Pleased with his guests, the good man learned to glow,

為他的客人感到高興，這個(gè)好牧師學(xué)會(huì)了激動(dòng)

And quite forgot their vices, in their woe;

Thus to relieve the wretched was his pride,

And even his failings leaned to virtue's side;
