A Boy’s Prize
In the Bible of a little boy after his death,
show how highly he prized and loved his Bible:
"This little book I'd rather own,
Than all the gold and gems
That e'er in monarchs' coffers shone,
Than all their diadems.
"Nay, were the seas one chrysolyte,
The earth a golden ball,
And diamonds all the stars of night,
This book were worth them all."
You can commit more verses of scripture to memory.
