How sweet with your fond wife to sit
Outside your door at daylight's close,
While she's hard hitting at your nose-
No, I mean hard knitting at your hose.

J. Bruton.

I love the maid I married, never man
Sigh'd truer breath.

As for pudding is the pan,
As to cool us is the fan,
So man's for woman made,
And woman's made for man.

Shakespeare
(Coriolanus).

Motteaux.

I remember, I remember, the parlour where we met,

Its papered walls, its polished floor, and mantel black as

jet.

Shrine of my household deities!
Fair scene of home's unsullied joys!
To thee my burden'd spirit flies

When fortune frowns or care annoys.

Alaric A. Watts.

Her nose is straight and handsome, her eyebrows lifted

up,

Her chin is very neat and pert, and mouth like a china

cup.

William Allingham.

Lady, oh guard with most faithful care
The ring that gleams on thy hand so fair;
That bright little circlet's the small gold sign
That the life of another is one with thine.

Anonymous.

There's no trust,

No faith, no honesty, in man-all perjur'd,
All forsworn, all naught, all dissemblers.

A gentle form is near me now,

Shakespeare (Hamlet).

A small white hand is clasp'd in mine;
I gaze upon her placid brow,

And ask what joys can equal thine.

Alaric A. Watts.

Truth is the strong thing-let man's life be true; And love's the truth of mine-time prove the rest! Robert Browning.

Oh! had we but a little isle

On which the sun might always smile,
There to reside alone with thee-
How tired out we soon should be.

Love's a trifle, fleeting soon;

Anonymous.

Vows are the froth, and man the spoon.
