194 ページ - IN good King Charles's golden days, When loyalty no harm meant, A zealous High Churchman was I, And so I got preferment.
101 ページ - Some have too much, yet still do crave; I little have, and seek no more. They are but poor, though much they have, And I am rich with little store: They poor, I rich; they beg, I give; They lack, I leave; they pine, I live.
