Wise For Both.

Sirrah, when a call to arms Starts your pulse* leaping. When you thrill to war’s alarms. Waking, fighting, sleeping, For success in your emprise U 4 Put your talth on high. But—a precept old ahd wise— Keep your powder dry. Lady, when a cruel fate Sets your heart to grieving. When a trystlng swain Is late Or a cook la leaving. Let no tear your anguish speak. Dry thy starry eye. Guard the bloom upon your cheek— Keep your powder dry. -Puck.
