Some Pieces of Wonderful Prose : The Conditions of a Good Wife



In a good spouse and wife behoveth these conditions, that she be busy and devout in God's service, meek and serviceable to her husband and fair speaking and goodly to her meinie, merciful and good to wretches that be needy, easy and peaceable to her neighbours, ready, wary and wise in things that should be avoided, mightiful and patient in suffering, busy and diligent in her doing, mannerly in clothing, sober in moving, wary in speaking, chaste in looking, honest in bearing, sad in going, shamefast among the people, merry and glad with her husband and chaste in privity. Such a wife is worthy to be praised, that endendeth more to please her husband with such womanly dues, than with her braided hairs and desireth more to please him with virtues than with fair and gay clothes and useth the goodness of matrimony more because of children than of fleshly liking and hath more liking to have children of grace than of kind.

Because...           Men are included in Women.                     Male is within the fold of Female.
He is contained in She. `                                                                Sweet is the rose, but grows upon a brief. `
Sweet is the Juniper, but sharp his bough.                           Sweet is the eglantine, but pricketh near.
Sweet is the firbloom, but his branches rough.                   `Sweet is the cypress, but his rind is tough.
Sweet is the nut, but bitter is his pill.                       Sweet is the broom-flower, but yet sour enough.
And sweet is moly, but his root is ill.                        So every sweet with sour is tempered still.

 Proverbial Conversation :

As Love and I late harbour'd in one inn,                                 With proverbs thus each other entestain :
"In love there is no back': thus I begin :                  ''Fair words make fools,” replieth he again :
"Who spares to speak doth spare to speed,” quoth I :    “As well,” said he, "too forward as too slow” :
''Fortune assists the boldest,” I reply :                    “A hasty man,” quoth he, ''ne'er wanted woe”:
''Labour is light where I love”, quoth I, "doth pay”:           Saith he, "Light burden's heavy, if farborne”:
Quoth I, The main lost. Cast the by away”:           Y' have spun a fair thread”, he replies in scorn.
nd having thus a while each other thwarted        Fools as we met, so fools again we parted.
By Michael Drayton: Proverb
Singular Singulars and Peculiar Plurals...                How singular some old words are!
I know two with no singular.                                       Agenda and marginalia: Both
Are always plural, 'pon my oath.                                               The opposite's the case to greet us
With propaganda and coitus,                                      Upon these never sets the sun,
And yet of each there's only one.                             Phantasmagoria, likewise,
Pervades, yet never multiplies.                                                 Strata pluralises stratum,
Ultimata and ultimatum.                                               Memoranda and memorandum
Candelabra and candelabrum.                                   Why are nostrums then not nostra?
Why speak I not then from rostra?                          Thus my datum grows to data,
My erratum to errata.                                                    Child, put this on your next agendum.
Pudenda's more than are pudendum                     Medium makes media.
Criterion, criteria.                                                             What's plural for hysteria?
This is a A Curious Discourse that passed between the Twenty-Five Letters at Dinner-Time.
Says A, give me a good large slice.                            Says B, a little bit, but nice.
Says C, cut me a piece of crust.                                  Take it, says D, it's dry as dust.
Says E, I'll cut fast, who will.                                         Says F, I vow I'll home my fill.
Says G, give it me good and great.                            Says H, a little bit I hate.
Says I, I have the juice the best.                                                And K, the very same confest.
Says L, ther's nothing more I love.                            Says M, it makes your teeth to move.
N noticed what the others said.                                                O other's plates with grief survey'd.
P praised that took up to the life.                             Q quarrell'd Cause he'd a bad knife.
Says R, it runs short, I'am afraid.                                S silent sat and nothing said.
T thought that talking might lose time                    U understood it at meals a crime.
W wish'd these had been a quince in;                     Says X, those cooks ther's no convincing.
Says Y, I'll eat, let others wish.                                    Z sat as mute as any fish,
While Ampersy and he licked the dish.                   ords : Numbers
