It has been held—indeed, the point is clear—
“None are so deaf as those who will not hear;”
And, by the same good logic, we shall find,
“As those who will not see, are none so blind.”
The thankful Wife repaid th’ attention shown, 110
But now would make the duty all her own.
Again the gout return’d; but, seizing now
A vital part, would no relief allow.
The Husband died, but left a will that proved
He much respected whom he coolly loved.
