Rudolph Reed was oaken.
His wife was oaken too.
And his two good girls and his good little man
Oakened as they grew.Gwendolyn Brooks

Nary a grin grinned Rudolph Reed,
Nary a curse cursed he,
But moved in his House. With his dark little wife,
And his dark little children three.Gwendolyn Brooks
The old oaken bucket, the iron-bound bucket,
The moss-covered bucket, which hung in the well.Samuel Woodworth
Good-looking girls break hearts, and good-hearted girls mend them.
Mignon McLaughlin
Men are so seldom really good. They are so little sympathetic. What man thinks of changing himself so as to suit his wife? And yet men expect that women shall put on altogether new characters when they are married, and girls think that they can do so.
Anthony Trollope
Why did the little girls grow crippled
While the little boys grow strong
The boys allowed to come of age
The girls just came along
The girls were told sing harmonies
The boys could all sing songs
That's why little girls grew crippled
While little boys grew strong.Harry Chapin
