"entreaty"

Cherish your merits
without vanity - they
do you no credit then,
you see - and I'll show you
how to appeal to me
with reason and grace
and felicity
in brute force display
of your character. I know,
you already know those wiles,
but I'll add a trick or two
to your stash, as soon
as I come up with it,
my child.
