Although my husband—for the lure is love,

Your love! Try other tackle, fisher-friend!

Repentance, expiation, hopes and fears,

What you had been, may yet be, would I but

Prove helpmate to my hero—one and all

These silks and worsteds round the hook seduce

Hardly the late torn throat and mangled tongue.

Pack up, I pray, the whole assortment prompt!

Who wonders at variety of wile

In the Arch-cheat? You are the Adversary!
