Your care? Observe along these shores

The wheezing engine clank—the stamper ring.

Once, hawks and eagles here pursued their prey,

But now the white man ravens more than they.

No! give me but my water and God's meats,

And take your cares, your riches, and your thrones.

What the Great Spirit gives, I take with joy,

And scorn those gains which nothing can content.

"Drudge ye, and grind ye, white man! make your pence,

And store your purses with the shining poison.
