To Mrs. Houghton Of Bourmont, On Praising Her Husband To Dr. Swift

    By Jonathan Swift



    You always are making a god of your spouse;
    But this neither Reason nor Conscience allows;
    Perhaps you will say, 'tis in gratitude due,
    And you adore him, because he adores you.
    Your argument's weak, and so you will find;
    For you, by this rule, must adore all mankind.
