FRIENDSHIP IS A JEWEL RARE by OLIVER MURRAY EDWARDS

First Line: ACQUAINTANCES WE OFT ADMIRE
Last Line: IN BLACKNESS OF THE NIGHT.
Subject(s): FRIENDSHIP; RELATIONSHIPS;
Acquaintances we oft admire—
We meet and say adieu;
But friendship is a jewel rare
That shines, when hearts beat true,
Beneath the glory of the sun,
All radiant with light,
When dark clouds gather overhead
In blackness of the night.
