Mind youjf own concerns my friend*,
For they are ye urn alone;
Don't talk about yonr neighbors faults
But strive to mend yonr own.
Suppose he does not always lead
A truly perfect life.
What matters if he sometimes frets.
Or quarrels w»th his wife?
I on’t meddle—let hun know my friend
Your better nature spurns
To aet the spy on him or his—
Just mind your own concerns.
Yes mind yonr own concerns my friend
And presently you will find
That aif your time is occupied,
Aud yotFv* quite enougu to mind
Why need you care if Fnoeks or Spooks
8hould wed with Sallie Jones*
What maiter if your nighbor C
A half a million owns?
The mouey is not yours my friead,
~T Thongli golden stores he earns:

And not at all to you.
And uIbo bare in mind my friend,
A generous uature worms
No secret from a brotherk-s breast—
Fo mind your owu concerns.
