Allowing that mayhap
He'd give that ancient hide bound

A place upon the map,
He said that women must possess
The standing of the males,
Discard their quaint old fashioned
And never more wear wells.
And all the women wept with bliss
Because of what he did,
Exclaiming loudly, After this
Our beauty can't be hio.
Whe nall the face then men may see,
AS well as just the brow,
No more shall any spinsters be;
Wen all find husbands now"
And so they left their wells at home
Returning gaze for gaze
With men, when they went forth to

Upon the public ways.
