Rhymes with Militia...

As I get older, I realize that I correct people less and less on the pronunciation of Alysia. Now you'll never get it wrong again.

I read this poem in my Women's Lit course and I thought you might like to read it. It's called The Disappointment and it was written by Aphra Behn during the Restoration period, which followed the Renaissance. Now, the poem is long but I suggest reading it all the way through. If you don't get it about half way through, fret not. Behn lets you know exactly what has happened at the end. It gave me quite a chuckle. ;)
