A Leap Into Dark

No gentleman would value a woman
The less for not giving up herself soon
Or for not accepting his proposal
Without an enquiry into his status.
He would, on the contrary, value her
The less for her least resistance to his move
And for her readiness to his proposal,
Without any second thought or enquiry.
He'll form a contemptible opinion
About her valuation of marriage,
Having it but one cast for the whole life.
Can she cast that one chance so recklessly?
Woman won't make marriage a mockery.
It is for her like a leap into dark.
