First Line: Into my heart's treasury
Last Line: Of a lovely thing.
Alternate Author Name(s): Filsinger, Ernest B., Mrs.
Into my heart's treasury
I slipped a coin
That time cannot take
Nor a thief purloin, --
Oh, better than the minting
Of a gold-crowned king
Is the safe-kept memory
Of a lovely thing.
