ADVICE TO MARRIED MEN.
A Song.
To make the wife kind, and to keep the house still,
You must be of her mind, let her say what she will:
In all that she does you must give her her way,
For tell her she's wrong, and you'll lead her astray.
Then husbands take care,
Of suspicions beware,
Your wives may be true,
If you fancy they are.
With confidence trust them, and be not such elves
As to make by your jealousy horns for yourselves.
With confidence, &c.
