Content, Not Cates.

    By Robert Herrick



    'Tis not the food, but the content
    That makes the table's merriment.
    Where trouble serves the board, we eat
    The platters there as soon as meat.
    A little pipkin with a bit
    Of mutton or of veal in it,
    Set on my table, trouble-free,
    More than a feast contenteth me.
