Six things are requisite to create a happy home.
Integrity must be the architect, and
Tidiness the upholsterer.
It must be warmed by affection, and
Lightened up with cheerfulness, and
Industry must be the ventilator,
renewing the atmosphere and bringing in refreshment day by day;
While over all, as a protecting canopy and glory,
Nothing will suffice except the blessings of God.
