[A little Pains sometimes do good]

A little Pains sometimes do good
To such Cross Knotty Sticks of Wood.
Correction is the best Recept,
To set a Crooked Temper Streight.
If such Old Stubborn Boughs can Bend,
And from a just Chastisment mend,
Fond Parents pray asign a Reason,
Why Youth should want it in due Season?
