Ho perso un Mondo - l'altro giorno!
Qualcuno l'ha trovato?
Si riconosce dal Filo di Stelle
Legato intorno alla fronte.
Un Ricco - potrebbe non notarlo -
Eppure - al mio Occhio frugale,
Ha più Valore di Ducati -
Oh trovatelo - Signore - per me!

POETRY
(J181-F209, 1860)
I lost a World--the other day!
Has Anybody found?
You'll know it by the Row of Stars
Around it's forehead bound.
A Rich man--might not notice it--
Yet--to my frugal Eye,
Of more Esteem than Ducats--
Oh find it--Sir--for me!
