LXXVI.

She cannot do these things, nor one or two

Others, in that off-hand and dashing style

Which takes so much—to give the Devil his due;

Nor is she quite so ready with her smile,

Nor settles all things in one interview,

(A thing approved as saving time and toil);—

But though the soil may give you time and trouble,

Well cultivated, it will render double.
