Paupers NAV he fit for princes,
Princes fl for something less.

Ever yelling out of stone;
There are purple buds and golden,
Hidden, crushed and overgrown;

Loves and prospers YOU and me.

Men hv thought and men by fame.
Ginning equal rights to sunshine,
In a mans cnnobling name.

There are little wccd-clad ril's.
There are feeble. inch high saplings,
There ar1 ccdars On the hills;

Vainly Lifted up its voice.
