English poem

Middle-Aged-Man

Listen in the reader

I come to deal--if you give honest price.

FIRST MERCHANT (reading in a book)

"John Maher, a man of substance, with dull mind, And quiet senses and unventurous heart. The angels think him safe." Two hundred crowns, All for a soul, a little breath of wind.
