[Not for the doubtful rhyme within]
Not for the doubtful rhyme within
Nor outside gold,
Stranger or friend, I warn thee well,
Should this be sold;
Nor outside gold,
Stranger or friend, I warn thee well,
Should this be sold;
But freely for the sake of such
As homeless be,
Give thrice its worth and it shall prove
Cheap unto thee.
As homeless be,
Give thrice its worth and it shall prove
Cheap unto thee.
Amesbury, 12th Mo., 1873.
