Explore "Sweets for Leisure Hours" by E. Phillips on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
No glory I covet, nor riches I want, / Ambition is nothing to me; / The one thing I beg of kind heaven to grant, / Is a mind independent and free.
With passion unruffled, untainted with pride, / By reason my life let me square; / The wants of my nature are cheaply supplied; / And the rest is but folly and care.
