Three Things for Good Wives to Remember

Good wives TO suails should be akin,
Always their houses Keep within;
And not tn carry Fashion, hacks
All they are worth upon their backs.
Good wives, like city clocks, should be
Exact, with regularity;
But not, like city clocks, So loud,
BE heard 10y all the vulgar crowd.
Good wives. like echoes, should hc true,
And speak but when THEY'RE spoken To;
Yet, not like echo. 80 absurd.
To have forever the last word.
