Among Mortals Second Thoughts Are Wisest.

Sufficiency's Enough For Men Of Sense.

Oh, Trebly Blest The Placid Lot Of Those Whose Hearth Foundations Are In Pure Love Laid, Where Husband's Breast With Tempered Ardor Glows, And Wife, Oft Mother, Is In Heart A Maid!

A Wise Man In His House Should Find A Wife Gentle And Courteous, Or No Wife At All.

Many A Maiden, With White Feet Glancing Light As Air, Made Happy Music Through The Gloom.
