- Beware the serpent, slyly hid, which stings
															
- The soul with poison of Prosperity.
														
   
														
															EDWARD ROBESON TAYLOR, "Adversity" 
														 
														
															- Seek not life's jewels where the poppies grow,
															
- Nor where Desire, all passion-poisoned, rears
															
- Her luring domes, but in the heart of woe,
															
- With shores far washed by sanctifying tears.
