Robert Louis Stevenson - In Maximum
Work rating: Low

WOULDST thou be free?  I think it not, indeed;
But if thou wouldst, attend this simple rede:
When quite contented    }thou canst dine at home
Thou shall be free when }
And drink a small wine of the march of Rome;
When thou canst see unmoved thy neighbour`s plate,
And wear my threadbare toga in the gate;
When thou hast learned to love a small abode,
And not to choose a mistress A LA MODE:
When thus contained and bridled thou shalt be,
Then, Maximus, then first shalt thou be free.
