Sarada Devi
 

Thus I alone, where all my freedom grew,
In prison pine, with bondage and restraint:
And with remembrance of the greater grief,
To banish the less, I find my chief relief.

 
Henry Howard

Masiela Lusha
 

Can I see another's woe,
And not be in sorrow too?
Can I see another's grief,
And not seek for kind relief?

 
William Blake
 

All those who try to go it sole alone,
Too proud to be beholden for relief,
Are absolutely sure to come to grief.

 
Robert Frost
