"Where is the man who has the power and skill
To stem the torrent of a woman's will?

And if she won't, she won't; so there's an end on't."

"Oh, the gladness of their gladness when they're glad,
And the sadness of their sadness when they're sad;
But the gladness of their gladness, and the sadness of their

Are as nothing to their badness when they're bad."
