Sweet Wife.
The world goes up and the world goes down, And sunshine follows the rain ; And yesterday's sneer, and yesterday's frown, Can never come over again, Sweet wife — No, never come over again. For woman is warm, though man be cold, And the night will hallow the day, Till the heart which at even was weary and Can rise in the morning gay, Sweet wife — To its work in the morning gay. — Charles Kingsley.
