There is nothynge that more dyspleaseth God,
Than from theyr children to spare the rod.
With margerain jentyll,
The flowre of goodlyhede,
Embrowdred the mantill
Is of your maydenhede.
How olde proverbys says,
That byrd ys not honest
That fylythe hys owne nest.
The honor of Englond I lernyd to spelle,
In dygnyte roiall that doth excelle.
The worker is the slave of capitalist society, the female worker is the slave of that slave.
To call woman the weaker sex is a libel; it is man's injustice to woman.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men and women are created equal.
