TWO SPENDTHRIFT KINGS
THESE tawny sheaves, this fragrant land,
Two spendthrift kings have found and seized,
And Vagabondia may demand
Its pockets lined, its troubles eased.
Two spendthrift kings have found and seized,
And Vagabondia may demand
Its pockets lined, its troubles eased.
We hold or deed as fancy wills.
We own the world by right and law—
The hidden gold in all the hills,
The sweetness in a yellow straw.
We own the world by right and law—
The hidden gold in all the hills,
The sweetness in a yellow straw.
