XXII.

That's noble! That's romantic! For my part,

I think that "Philo-genitiveness" is—

(Now here's a word quite after my own heart,

Though there's a shorter a good deal than this,

If that politeness set it not apart;

But I'm resolved to say nought that's amiss)—

I say, methinks that "Philo-genitiveness"Might meet from men a little more forgiveness.
