THE MAIDEN'S CHOICE.
Genteel in personage,
Conduct and equipage,
Noble in heritage,
Generous and free;
Brave and romantic,
Learned not pedantic,
Frolic not frantic;
Thus must he be.

Honor maintaining,
Meanness disdaining,
Still entertaining,
Engaging and new;
Neat, but not finical,
Sage, but not cynical,
Never tyrannical,
But ever true.
