The dangers of her course are such and such—
What are you now?
Mothers and Wives and Housekeepers, forsooth!
Great names! you cry, full scope to rule and please!
Boom for wise age and energetic youth!—
But are you these?
Housekeepers? Do you then, like those of yore,
Keep house with power and pride, with grace and ease?
No, you keep servants only! What is more,
You don’t keep these!
