THE MISER by BEN ZED

First Line: A MISER ONCE DREAMED HE HAD GIVEN AWAY
Last Line: THAT AS LONG AS HE LIVED HE WOULD SLUMBER NO MORE.
Subject(s): JEWS; MISERS; SELFISHNESS; JUDAISM;

A MISER once dreamed he had given away
Some bread to a beggar hed'd met in the day.
He woke with a start and solemnly swore
That as long as he lived he would slumber no more.
