Read the following Extracts and answer the question that follows.
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 to me,
Then stood erect and spoke my thanks and blessed his charity.
I lay in wait 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 again for all he did to me?
Oh, gold is great, but greater far is heavenly sympathy.
—Charles Mackay
