With error in ambition justly charged,

Find we Lorenzo wiser in his wealth? 410

What if thy rental I reform? and draw

An inventory new, to set thee right?

Where thy true treasure? Gold says, “Not in me:”

And, “Not in me,” the diamond. Gold is poor;

India’s insolvent: seek it in thyself,

Seek in thy naked self, and find it there;

In being, so descended, form’d, endow’d;

Sky-born, sky-guided, sky-returning race!
