TELL ME NOT OF HOARDED GOLD. |

TELL ME NOT OF HOARDED GOLD.
I
Tell me not of hoarded goldFrom rich Peru;
Rather let me first be told
That thou art true;
Tell me not of honours won,
For I shall fear,
One so honour'd soon will shun
My humbler sphere.
II
Tell me not of happy IslesWhere thou hast been;
Tell me not of lovely smiles
That thou hast seen:
For I fear again thoul't seek
A foreign shore;
And the smile on Ellen's cheek
Will charm no more.
