SENTIMENT. 



'Money makes many friends,' the proverb saith. 

 Had I the means of winning only one, 

 I 'd deem myself the richest man on earth, 

 Nor envy even Rothschild's golden name. 



ANSWER. 



Thinkest thou the man whose mansions hold 

 The worldling's pride, the miser's gold, 



Obtains a richer prize 

 Than he who in his cot, at rest, 

 Finds heavenly peace a willing guest, 

 Ajid bears the earnest in his breast 



Of treasure in the skies ? 



Mn. Sigourney.
