He'll have his all; and though his heart is great, <br />Ay, prodigal of kindness, yet is he <br />A very Shylock in his bargaining. <br />Those soft, mild eyes of his grow hard as iron <br />To gauge the too, too little or too much, <br />When commerce puts his temper to the touch.<br /><br />Robert Crawford<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/business-and-pleasure/
