A Question of Marriage


(1894)


To My Critics, In Appreciation Of The Kind Manner In Which They Have Reviewed My Former Books, I Dedicate This Work.


The saying that no one can serve two masters has its exception in the case of a wife and mother, who is bound by her marriage vows and maternal instincts to love in equal measure her husband and children; but alas for the happiness of the family should she love one to the exclusion of the other, for from such exclusion arise many domestic heart burnings.


If marriages are made above, They're oft unmade by man below, There should be trust, and joy, and love, If marriages are made above; But should Heav'n mate a hawk and dove, Such match unequal breeds but woe, If marriages are made above, They're oft unmade by man below.
