Here you will find the Poem The Pity Of Angels of poet Victor Marie Hugo

The Pity Of Angels

[LA PITIE SUPREME VIII., 1881.]


When an angel of kindness
Saw, doomed to the dark,
Men framed in his likeness,
He sought for a spark--
Stray gem of God's glory
That shines so serene--
And, falling like lark,
To brighten our story,
Pure Pity was seen.
