A poem by Ralph Waldo Emerson

From Ibn Jemin

________________________________________________
Title:     From Ibn Jemin
Author: Ralph Waldo Emerson [More Titles by Emerson]

Two things thou shalt not long for, if thou love a mind serene;--
A woman to thy wife, though she were a crowned queen;
And the second, borrowed money,--though the smiling lender say
That he will not demand the debt until the Judgment Day.








[The end]
Ralph Waldo Emerson's poem: From Ibn Jemin
