1. Poetry was slain by a ponderous “Light,”

    and abundance upon people’s heads is scarce.

  2. Hair oppressed me when it grew a little long;

    God confound it—what a long little thing!

  3. Shaving alone is comfort—and beauty.

    So ply a firm hand with the lovely bringer of relief.

  4. I see no beauty in a blade when it rusts;

    beauty belongs only to the burnished blade.
