Clever and Good People
By Elizabeth Wordsworth who lived from 1840 to 1932. Wasn't she Good and Clever?  If all the good people were clever, And all clever people were good, The world would be nicer than ever We thought that it possibly could. But somehow 'tis seldom or never The two hit it off as they should, The good are so harsh to the clever, The clever, so rude to the good! So friends, let it be our endeavour To make each by each understood; For few can be good, like the clever, Or clever, so well as the good. |
