These verses were composed by Dr. Clark Dickerman and written in an album
“He shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver”
1 Tis sweet to know that he who tries
The silver, takes his seat
Beside the fire that purifies
Lest too intense an heat,
Raised to consume the base alloy,
The precious metal too destroy.
2 Tis good to think that well he knows
The silver’s power to bear
The ordeal to which it goes
And that with skill and care
He’ll take it from the fire when fit
For his own hand to polish it.
3 Tis blessedness to feel that he
The piece he has begun
Will not forsake, ‘till he can see
To prove the work is done.
And
The perfect likeness of his own
4 But oh! how much of earthly mould,
Dark relics of the mine
Purged from the ore, must he behold
How long must he refine
Ere in the silver he can trace
The first faint semblance of his face.
5 Thou great refiner, sit thou by -
The promise to fulfil!
Proved by thy hand, beneath thine eye,
And melted by thy will.
Oh! may the work forever shine,
Reflecting beauty pure as thine
