A plea for divine help and protection for motherless children. The speaker laments lack of maternal comfort in illness and sorrow, urges judgment with sympathy, and asks God to keep the motherless from sin and grant them guidance and blessing. The poem pleads for mercy toward those without a mother’s care.
A long moral essay contrasts pity with practical aid, urging that compassion must lead to deeds. It cites a Frenchman and a Samaritan as models and rails against people praised for feelings alone without tangible help through examples from civic life and religious reflection.
