Scandal--Live it down. Should envious tongues some malice frame, To soil and tarnish your good name, Live it down! Grow not disheartened; 'tis the lot Of all men, whether good or not: Live it down! *Him not in answer, but be calm; For silence yields a rapid balm: Live it down! Go not among your friends and say, Evil hath fallen on my way: Live it down! Far better thus yourself alone To suffer, than with friends bemoan The trouble that is all your own: Live it down! What though men evil call your good! So CHRIST Himself, misunderstood, Was nailed unto a cross of wood! And now shall you for lesser pain, Your inmost soul for ever stain, By rendering evil back again? Live it down! 161. Errors in Speaking. There are several kinds of errors in speaking. The most objectionable of them are those in which words are employed that are unsuitable to convey the meaning intended. Thus, a person wishing to express his intention of going to a given place, says, "I propose going," when, in fact, he purposes going. The following affords an amusing illustration of this class of error:--A venerable matron was speaking of her son, who, she said, was quite stage-struck. "In fact," remarked the old lady, "he is going to a premature performance this evening!" Considering that most amateur performances are premature, it cannot be said that this word was altogether misapplied; though, evidently, the maternal intention was to convey quite another meaning.
