And instead Of expressing their upright intent
They lead you to fear they may break.
They wish you to feel that they re honest and

Yet there they will stand with their eyes to

And unconsciously lean out Of plumb.

Stand modestly forth to the popular view
And don't try to strut or to pose.

Dwarf all chance as we lean out Of plumb.
