ed forever is life-work!
Be my Friend, Beloved! Cover
me not with Illusions, nor invest
me with all the charms Of Gree
and the Lorelei. For. 1 am no
"siren!" And infatuation, like
wine, is exhilarating for the mo.
ment-but leaveth always the
headache and the heartache.
Be my Friend, Beloved! Cherish
me not as fragile flower, neither
as a piece Of bric-a-brac.
For chivalry is beautiful, but
comradeship is more satisfying.
Take me by the hand and let us
walk together, play together,
work together, climb together to
the Summit of Life; and then, to-
gether, limp down the hill, still
keeping step, through the sunset
Of the years.
Be my Friend, Beloved! Under
stand me-do not, coddle me, as
thou wouldst a child and half
wit. Respect me, even as I re-
spect thee.
For this is the foundation.rock
OF friendship!
Love me for those few charms,
and virtues, and talents which I
possess-but do not ask me to
grow WINGS!
Help me to live up to my best
and my highest-but do not ask
me to live up to an Impossible
Ideal!
For, marriage may be a re-
finery-but 1t is not a reforma.
tory!
Be my Friend, Beloved-not my
worshiper, my adorer. my guard,
ian, my judge, my critic, my over
seer, my slave, nor my ruler!
Be my Friend, Beloved!
This is all l ask-but it is no
LITTLE thing!
