I am a softener of pain and a procurer of sleep. I am the friend of the traveller and the sailor. I keep watch over the permanent and the temporary abodes of man. I have marked the course of his coreer from the first to the last. I have watched over the soft core of infancy, and the mature strength of manhood, and the feeble core of old age. I have watched over the solemn scenes of life, and the soft core of death. I have marked the core of the wedding, and the core of the funeral. The core of the softener of pain and the procurer of sleep is the core.
