¶Liedtext

Gentle manners, virtuous lives, Make easy husbands, happy wives; These are the only means we know To make a little heav'n below. Angry manners, vicious lives, Make wretched husbands, cursed wives; And hence such evils take their birth, Which make a little hell on earth. Two easy things will satisfy mankind; An easy fortune and an easy mind: But the one thing that gives a man content Is a good conscience from a life well spent.
