Q 1, ,. REV. ANTHONY F. MOORE, OFM There was a good man of the priest' vocation, A poor village priest of true conse- cration, But he was rich in holy thought and work. Learned he was, in the truest sense of a clerk Who meant Christ's gospel faithfully to preach And truly his parishioners to teach . Our Pastor He was a shepherd, and not a mercenary And though himself a man of strict vocation He was not harsh to weak souls in temptation Not overbearing nor haughty in his speech But wise and kind in all he tried to teach. By good example and just words to turn Sinners to heaven was his whole concern! - Chaucer
