Read the following and answer the given questions
"I lay in sorrow deep distressed:
My grief a proud man heard,
His looks were cold. He gave me gold
But not a kindly word.
My sorrow passed I paid him back
The gold he gave me.
Then stood erect and spoke my thanks
And blessed his charity.
I lay in want and grief, and pain
A poor man passed my way
He bound my head, he gave me bread :
He watched me night and day
How shall I pay him back him again
For all he did to me?
OH, gold is great, but greater far is heavenly sympathy
