True Wealth

The heart, it hath its own estate; The mind, it hath its wealth untold: It needs not fortune to be great, While there's a coin surpassing gold.
No matter which way fortune leans, Wealth makes not happiness secure; A little mind hath little means, A narrow heart is always poor.
’Tis not the house that honor makes, True honor is a thing divine; It is the mind precedence takes, It is the spirit makes the shrine.
— Selected.
