Rare

Precious gems, gold and silver, beautiful
arts. These are things precious to mens hearts.

Splendid wines, wealth glory and fame are
but a few things that I could name.

These things are rare but in no wise can
compare, to love and friendship the most 
precious of rare things that we could
ever share.
