Let the Wealthy & Great
Roll in Splendor and State
I envy then not I declare it
I eat my own Lamb,My Chickens & Ham
I shear my own fleece & I wear it
I have Lawns, I have Bowers
I have Fruits, I have Flowers
The Lark is my morning alarmer
so jolly boys now
Here's God Speed the Plough
Long Life & Success to the Farmer.
English Verse circa 1890
