Be careful what you wish for
sighed, "What is life, without wealth?"
The Gods, in their wisdom,
Gave him that wondrous gift:
Then Midas, tiring of his Golden Touch,
Cried: "What is wealth, without life!"

Midas
King Midas, thinking on the emptiness of days,sighed, "What is life, without wealth?"
The Gods, in their wisdom,
Gave him that wondrous gift:
Then Midas, tiring of his Golden Touch,
Cried: "What is wealth, without life!"
