| 'Tis on the road to wisdom that rough way | B |
| So many fall | C |
| Wrongs unrepented and unpunished breed | D |
| More deadly growths of that pernicious seed | D |
| Were all men equal were all dull or keen | E |
| Ulysses or Ajax had never been | F |
| Even as men shut their doors to unkind airs | G |
| Misery in poverty unpitied fares | G |
| I hate effeminate men she frowning cried | H |
| And I a mannish woman he replied | H |
| The one white violet's the innocence | I |
| A maid knows not she had until it's gone | J |
| An unclean thought still like an ulcer eats | K |
| The life immortal | L |
| Life at the best is what it makes of hope | M |
| Its use or its abuse is all | C |
| Our sweet sins have their own sour medicine | N |
| And that must cure us | O |
