HONESTY

By Gelett Burgess

The boy who plays at marbles and does n't try to cheat,

Who always keeps his temper, no matter if he's beat,

Is sure to be a favorite with all upon the street.

The girl who counts her hundreds very fairly, when she's “it”

Who does n't peep or listen, nor turn around a bit,

I'm sure she's not a Goop, in fact, she's quite the opposite!
