Thanks for posting this poem. I lost* the book I had which contained it and wanted to SHOW it to a friend. I *love* the lines that are 3rd and 4th FROM the bottom.
*= "lent to a friend who lost!"

I had this poem in one of my schoolbooks and haven’t seen it since although I have looked for it a few times over the years. I think it is one of the most astute comments on wealth I have ever seen and it should be compulsory reading for all.
