A centre where all virtues meet:
Good tempered, Just, and ALWAYS kind,
AS warm OF heart as pure OF mind
Devoted, tender, gentle, fair;

Low voiced, refined, with every grace
An angel half, in form and face
sweet harmonious, charming thing,

He wants a wife, with modest look,
Whose heart is like costly book,

He wants her slender, too, and tall,
And fair as woman since the Fall
Her eyes-it matters not the hue
He worships black - adores The blue
Her hair must, with her loving eyes,
Agree in shade, or compromise.
He wants her sensible and mind
