THE WORLD by ANONYMOUS

First Line: THIS IS THE BEST WORLD THAT WE LIVE IN
Last Line: IT IS THE WORST WORLD THAT EVER WAS KNOWN
Subject(s): BORROWERS & LENDERS;

This is the best world that we live in,
To lend, and to spend, and to give in;
But to borrow, to beg, or to get a man's own,
It is the worst world that ever was known.
