How Much For That?



Defining fair transactions
Pursuing valuables exchanged
Using measurements to indicate
Honest dealings well arranged

When counting up and dishing out
The special weights of milk and honey
To meet the grade for certain prices paid
And not be short changed on the money

Exactitude cannot be misconstrued
The finest points though hard to see
For there in tiniest quantities
One finally meets with accuracy
