The Mission of Sympathy is a long narrative poem written in four cantos by William S. Villiers Sankey in 1850. The poem is a reflection on the power of empathy and compassion in human relationships and society. It tells the story of a young woman named Sympathy, who is sent on a mission by the angels to help those in need.Throughout the poem, Sympathy encounters various characters who are struggling with different challenges, such as poverty, illness, and loneliness. She offers them comfort and support, and her kindness and understanding help them find hope and healing.The poem also explores the theme of redemption, as some of the characters who have made mistakes or wrong choices are given a chance to make amends and start anew. The narrative is rich with vivid descriptions of nature and landscapes, and the language is lyrical and evocative.The Mission of Sympathy is a work of Victorian literature that reflects the values and ideals of its time, particularly the belief in the importance of social responsibility and the power of human connection. It is a timeless meditation on the human condition and the transformative power of compassion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
