Fair Annie

1.

The Indians prize not English gold ,
Nor English Indians shell :
Each in his place will passe for ought,
What ere men buy or sell.

2.

English and Indians all passe hence ,
To an eternall place,
Where shels nor finest gold's worth ought,
Where nought's worth ought but Grace.

3.

This Coyne the Indians know not of ,
Who knowes how soone they may?
The English knowing prize it not ,
But fling't like drosse away.
