Written In A Volume Of Goethe by Ralph Waldo Emerson Lyrics

Genre: misc | Year: 1847

Six thankful weeks,—and let it be
A meter of prosperity,—
In my coat I bore this book,
And seldom therein could I look,
For I had too much to think,
Heaven and earth to eat and drink.
Is he hapless who can spare
In his plenty things so rare?
