If you are
tempted to reveal,
A tale
someone to you has told,
About
another, make it pass,
Before you
speak, three gates of gold.
Three Narrow
gates first, “Is it true?”
Then, “Is it
needful?” in your mind,
Give
truthful answer, and the next,
Is last and
narrowest, “Is it kind?”
Katherine
Carey-Place 1878-1934
