FRIENDS AND FOES

by: William Dean Howells (1837-1920)

      ITTER the things one’s enemies will say
      Against one sometimes when one is away,
      But of a bitterness far more intense
      The things one’s friends will say in one’s defence.

"Friends and Foes" is reprinted from Harper's Magazine, Volume 86, Issue 514 (March, 1893).
