Classic Poem

Alb like white innocence with riches great,
Rare is it when these two together meete;
Christ faith, it is most hard for a rich man,
Heavens blessed Kingdome happy to attaine.
If riches doe encrease, faith David , see,
Be carefull that your hearts not on them be:
All which reveal's, that who doe riches reap ,
Likely they cannot innocency keepe.
Doubtlesse, then noble Peere, you have no Peere

Nobly, that riches have not reaped heere
Alone, but with them Albe of innocence,
Peerelesle indeed, must therefore be the sence,
Excelling noble Peere, you have thereby
Reapt riches , and white Alb , O dignity.
