We use cereal starches, too,

you yourself would iron. Then
we return every piece neatly
folded, spotless, and aseptically

And the cost of this service,
which gives your children so

everything that assists in making the
dress look expensive, including large

from neck to hem, trimmings that
run up and down and narrow stripes
