The bank slips by, we gather not its fruit, We plant no seed, we irri…

In Loves a cure For Fortunes hate ; In Loves a lure Shall laugh at Fate ; We have tolled Deaths knell ; All streams are pure ; We are new-create ; Alls well, alls well ! We have God to endure, we are very sure Alls well !

When I am dead, remember me for this That I bade workers work, and lovers kiss ; Lau…
