Select the correct text in the passage.

Read "Riches" by Sara Teasdale. Which two lines in the poem contain metaphors?

I have no riches but my thoughts,

Yet these are wealth enough for me;

My thoughts of you are golden coins

Stamped in the mint of memory;

And I must spend them all in song,

For thoughts, as well as gold, must be

Left on the hither side of death

To gain their immortality.
