Painters And Poets Have Liberty

Prudent, Cautious Self-control Is Wisdom's Root.

Then Gently Scan Your Brother Man, Still Gentler Sister Woman; Though They May Gang A Kennin' Wrang, To Step Aside Is Human.

Ambition Is A Meteor-gleam; Fame A Restless Airy Dream; Pleasures, Insects On The Wing Round Peace, Th' Tend Rest Flow'r Of Spring.

For Gold The Merchant Ploughs The Main, The Farmer Ploughs The Manor.

The Best-laid Plans Of Mice And Men Often Go Awry.
