THE VALUE OF MONEY.
Obscurely had passed my life 49,.
A wretched ignoran1ous- fs-ha
Till like Byron, woke and found
s;Myself, one morning, famous"
All darkly had life's weather been,
Though now SO bright and sunny;
But then, the change is not SO strange
I've lately had some money!
Where er went, folks ran away,
AS if from burning lava!
seemed living emblem of
The 'sPoison Tree Of Java -
IT'S not so now-for all, Ivow, ~
Flock near, like flies round honey:
Oh! magic change Of Fortunes wand
I've lately had some money!
fused to say some funny things, fr
At least. dared to think so.
But dead upon the ear they tell, sa.sas
And all away would shrink so.
My mouth never open now,
But all say sfunny:
They'll even bring mysteries on;
I've lately had some money
Though young and handsome, once thought
That should ne er be welded;
Mammas their daughters kept from me
As from scarecrow dreaded -
The ugliest girl could not move; -
Nor her with hump and one eye;
But "angels'' now run after me;
"a, I've lately had some money
On any subject in debate,
If an idea started,
meier was listened to, and none a
Cared how in scorn smarted.
My slightest whisper now is heard
No more their ears are dummy;
They cannot act without my views;
