Let /me see what I’ll pay; ■ will give a whole life with its work all the way, I will give you the morning, the sun rises bright, The noons, and the evenings, the rest of the night. All the hopes of the waking, the dreams of my sleep, The wishes, the purpose, the harvests I reap, The victories clean I shall win in the fight, The laurels I gather, and every de light Which all of my love can devise, and alway My heart—yet all this is but “promise to pay.” T -D.
