Fine Knacks For Ladies |
Fine knacks for ladies, cheap, choice, brave and new, |
Good pennyworths but money cannot move, |
I keep a fair but for the fair to view, |
A beggar may be liberal of love. |
Though all my wares be trash, the heart is true. |
Great gifts are guiles and look for gifts again, |
My trifles come as treasures from my mind, |
It is a precious jewel to be plain, |
Sometimes in shell the Orient’s pearls we find. |
Of others take a sheaf, of me a grain. |
Within this pack pins, points, laces and gloves, |
And divers toys fitting a country fair, |
But in my heart, where duty serves and loves, |
Turtles and twins, Court’s brood, a heav’nly pair. |
Happy the man that thinks of no removes. |
