Citation | CG-NH.766.013 22 Mar 1766:21 (508) . . . [2 lines introduction] A POEM ON THE WORLD. The world's a perfect cheat--And all in it that seems so great; A lie! Its honours are but breath; At furthest, at our death they die. Its pleasures are a dream--And are of no esteem when past. And all these empty riches--which worldlings so bewitches, then flee away as fast. . . . [4 more verses] |
