A
-
I never told the buried goldB
Upon the hill that liesC
I saw the sun his plunder doneD
Crouch low to guard his prizeC
-
He stood as nearE
As stood you hereF
A pace had been betweenG
Did but a snake bisect the brakeH
My life had forfeit beenI
-
That was a wondrous bootyJ
I hope 'twas honest gainedK
Those were the fairest ingotsL
That ever kissed the spadeM
-
Whether to keep the secretN
Whether to revealO
Whether as I ponderP
Kidd will sudden sailQ
-
Could a shrewd advise meJ
We might e'en divideR
Should a shrewd betray meJ
Atropos decideR
