Education Forms The Common Mind. Just As

Is There A Parson Much Bemused In Beer, A Maudlin Poetess, A Rhyming Peer, A Clerk Foredoom'd His Father's Soul To Cross, Who Pens A Stanza When He Should Engross?

And Make Each Day A Critic On The Last.

Fair Tresses Man's Imperial Race Ensnare; And Beauty Draws Us With A Single Hair.

Who Are Next To Knaves? Those That Converse With Them.

Who Combats Bravely Is Not Therefore Brave, He Dreads A Death-bed Like The Meanest Slave: Who Reasons Wisely Is Not Therefore Wise,- His Pride In Reasoning, Not In Acting Lies.
