To what is generous in the other's mind.

"I was the only boy, and father thought

I'd farm the Spital after he was dead,

And many a time he took me out and taught

About manures and seed-corn white and red,

And soils and hops, but I'd an empty head;

Harvest or seed, I would not do a turn--

I loathed the farm, I didn't want to learn.

"He did not mind at first, he thought it youth

Feeling the collar, and that I should change.
