1 The following fanciful and versus defeription, con
-1 veys it reproachful but Jalutary l^foi, to the
manujaciuieis rs that liquid poilon with which
our country is,deluged. Every person who i
employed tn converting the nutritious produce of
the eat th, into corrofiveGin,or pefti/ential Whis
key, may fee " Satan at word,'' aid the fhapt
of the Devil " in the worm of his Still."
THE WORM OF THE STILL.
I HAVE found that the learn'd feem'd so puzzled
to tell,
I The true shape of the Devil, and inhere is bis hell.
Into Serpents of old, crept the Author of ill,
But Satah works, now, as a Worm of the Still.
Os all his migrations, this last he likes best,
How the arrogant Reptile, here, raises his crest ;
His head winding up, from the tail of his plan,
Till the Worm Hands erect, o'er the -proflrated
Mau!
Here he joys to transform, by his magical spell,
The foeet milk of the earth, to an eflence of Hell ;
Fermented our food, and corrupted our grain,
To famifh the Qomach, and madden the brain.
By his water of life, what diffraction and fear !
By ihe gloom of its night,when pale JptEires appear!
A demon keeps time with his fiddle, finance,
, While the paflfons spring forth, in a horrible dance.
Then prone on the earoty, they adore in the dust,
A man's™ bufir half, rais'd in room of his bust ;
Such orgieg the night of the drunkard display,
But how black with ennui, how benighted his day !
With dreams it begins. & with dreams it muff end,
The dream is his country, his millrefs, his friend ;
Then his offify'd heart hates itfelf at the last ;
And a dream nerves his hand for the death-doing
Temple of (Dornum,
IN the year 1587, it was decided at Grenoble,
that a child, born by the wife of Maoleon de Beau
mont, in the course of four years, during which
he had been abfeur firm her, was legitimate, and
that flie had conceived by thinking on her husband.
The decision was, founded on the examination of
Midwives, who all declared such had frequently
been the case.
Charles Bannifler, being canght one day in a
flower of rain, aent for a shelter into a ccinb
make^'s shop, where an old ipan was working.
" I am forry,"f, id Bannister to the man, " that a
person at your thwe of life fhonld have so much
pain" —" Pain ! I have no pain, thank God," ex
claimeo the man, << Yes you must have, are you
not cutting yorr teeth !''
