"The Coin," by Sara Teasdale



The Coin
-Sara Teasdale


1              Into my heart’s treasury
2                              I slipped a coin
3              That time cannot take
4                              Nor a thief purloin –
5              Oh, better than the minting
6                              Of a gold-crowned king
7              Is the safe-kept memory
8                              Of a lovely thing.
