WHAT you give me, I cheerfully accept,
A little sustenance, a hut and garden, a little moneythese, as I rendezvous with my
poems;
A travelers lodging and breakfast as I journey through The StatesWhy should I
be
ashamed to own such gifts? Why to advertise for them?
For I myself am not one who bestows nothing upon man and woman;
For I bestow upon any man or woman the entrance to all the gifts of the universe.
