Teacher Preparation – For Teachers of Subjects or Classes in Primary and Secondary Schools

Fingit equum tenera docilem cervice magister
Ire viam qua monstret eques.

Men must be taught as if you taught them not,
And things unknown propos'd as things forgot.

Whoe'er excels in what we prize,
Appears a hero in our eyes;
Each girl, when pleased with what is taught,
Will have the teacher in her thought.

A blockhead with melodious voice,
In boarding-schools may have his choice.
