“The painters did very well by her;
it is true, they missed never a line
of the suave turn of the head
or subtle shade of lowered eye-lid
or eye-lids half-raised.”

“To be a woman and a writer
is double mischief, for
the world will slight her
who slights the servile house, and who would rather
make odes than beds.”
