An intellectual hatred is the worst,  
  So let her think opinions are accursed.  
  Have I not seen the loveliest woman born  
  Out of the mouth of plenty's horn,  
  Because of her opinionated mind  
  Barter that horn and every good  
  By quiet natures understood  
  For an old bellows full of angry wind?
St. 8 - Michael Robartes and the Dancer (1921) - A Prayer For My Daughter
