“Sin their conception, their birth weeping,
Their life a general mist of error,
Their death a hideous storm of terror.”

But I reflect—which women seldom do.
Tobacco is a filthy weed,
That from the devil doth proceed;
That drains your purse, that burns your clothes,
That makes a chimney of your nose.”
