Suppose you speak what you hear,
And you twist everybody's ear.
You've spoken evil,
It's talk primeval;
You're the devil's puppet, I fear.
So you are saying you should say nothing until you have corroboration. That's not necessarily evil. that's human nature
I'm just saying that people who speak evil get invited to tea parties.: -)
There's a lot of fake news on Facebook and Twitter. People spread it around without verifying it. Some people get hurt like the 11 year old that hung himself after his 13 year old girl friend faked her own suicide.

I would like to translate this poem
Gossip mongers are everywhere! They are agents of the devil and through their reckless talk, they destroy others reputation! A fine limerick!
Thanks, Valsa. I agree with you.
