floating about on the sea of literature.
Young lady, ponder it well Make
thyself "a happy woman for verify

happy because she can't help it,
whose smile even the coolest sprink~

Men make terrible mistake when
they marry for beauty, for talent, or
for style the best wives are those
who possess the magic secret of be

makes no difference the bright lit
