Advice
If you wish a maid to win
Do not as her slave begin;
Nor a suppliant mild and meek
For her kind compassion seek.
Rather keep a manly pride
And your loving fondness hide;
With a careless lifted brow
Just one scanting glance bestow.
When they think you over-bold
Women keep you in the cold,
But if you too mild appear
Then they love to flout and jeer.
He's the victor in the end
Who can both together blend;
Sometimes kind and gentle be,
Sometimes prove his mastery.
