5. To my Cousin germane Mrs. Olive Cotton.
Suspicion, Grief, Disdain: Fame, Beauty, Truth,Wrongeth, consumes begets: keeps, wounds, indueth
Friendship, life, hatred: deeds, the mind, the best.
You want the first three, and enjoy the rest:
Suspicion hate, shun grief, abhor disdain,
Love fame, keep beauty, and in truth remain.
