Il doesn do to take oGense
At each imaginary slight,
A man will show heap more sense
II ne can rein his temper light
OF course, he may be Ia the right.
His patience may be sorely tried;
But then there is no use TO fight
Just let il slide.
You may see through a thin pretense
That's made with clear, unclouded sight
You may have solid evidence
That black is black and white is white,
But then you need not spread your light
OF intellect too far and wide.
Don't contradict the blatherskite-
Just let it slide.
We learn by long experience
That nothing goes to suit us quite;
we meet with scorn and insolence
And silly slander, wrong and spite.

And vow we will not be decried;
But barking dogs will seldom bite
Just let It slide.
