East Ward

    Once did She hold the gorgeous East in fee;
    And was the safeguard of the West:
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    The higher, the more exalted the society, the greater is its culture and refinement, and the less does gossip prevail. People in such circles find too much of interest in the world of art and literature and science to discuss, without gloating over the shortcomings of their neighbors.
    —Mrs. H. O. Ward (1824–1899)
