THERE'S NO POCKET IN A sHRoUD.

You must leave your MANY millions,
And the gay and festive crowd.
Though you roll in royal millions,
There's NO pocket in shroud.
Whether pa1per. prince or peasant.
Whether rich or poor or proud,
Remember that there isn't
Any pocket in shroud.
Yon'n have all this world Of glory,
With record long and loud,
And place in song and story.
But no pocket in jour shroud.
So be lavish in your riches,
Neither vain, nor cold. nor proud,
And you'll gain the golden inches
In a chime without cloud.
