THE BATCHELORS WISH.
If marriage gives a happiness to life,
Such be the woman who shall be my wife;
Beautious, as heighth of fancy can express,
Meek in her nature, cleanly in her dress;
Wise without pride and pleasing without art,
With chearful aspect, and with honest heart,
To sooth my cares, most high most sweet her song.
