CLEON AND 1.

have I;
Cleon dwelleth in palace. IN a cot
tage I;
Cleon hath a dozen fortunes, not {
penny I;
Yet the poorer of the twain is Cleon
and not I.
Cleon, true, posseth acres, but the
landscape 1;
Half the charms to me it yieldeth
money can not buy.
Cleon harbors sloth and dizziness,
freshening vigor L;
He in velvet, / in fustian, richer man
am ].
Cleon is a slave to grandeur, free as
thought am /;
Wealth surrounded, care-en vironed,
Cleon fears to die;
Death may come, he'll find me ready
happier man am I.
Cleon sees no charms in nature, in a
daisy 1;
Cleon hears no anthems ringing in the
sea and sky;
Nature sings to me forever. earnest
listener I;
State for state, with all attendants,
who would change? Not !.
