— Her broom is still the sign That housework is divine ! XII. A hearthstone asks no impious sacrifice Of Youthful joy and mirth ! — What would a home be worth If purchasable only at the price Of every pleasant thing Which youth was meant to bring? XIII. I wish thee fun and frolic ! Go with zest To wreak thy heart's desire ! Yet first of all inquire If what thy longing leads to .... is the best ! For be it understood, — The Best alone is Good ! XIV. Keep down thy vanity — keep up thy pride ! Yet... both alike are part Of every maiden's heart ! So let thy virgin-blush — too pure to hide — Be like the altar-flame That burns in Vesta's name. XV. I wish thee boldness never to let slip A chance to show thy face In any humble place Where Mercy's tenderness of finger-tip May stroke a burning brow. As Charity knows how. A BOGY MAN S BALLAD XVI. And if thy knees bring visions to thy mind, And if thy fancy broods In high, immortal moods, — Waste not the weird occasions ! — (hard to find, Yet easy to be lost !) — Keep them at any cost!
