E X C E L SIOR!
A WINTER ODE.

" They made a graven image, and set it up on high ;
- And there it stands unto this day, to witness if I lie."
Macaulay.

Scene—Williamson-sqllare,

Tine—Any evening since Christmas.
The shadows of night were coming down swift,
And the dazzling snow lay drift on drift,
As thro". the Square" a figure did go,
Carrying a flag with this motto,

Yellow ho !

O'er a forehead pale came copious hair,
His nose reirouni, complexion fair;
O'er his tightish eye an auburn lash ;
His chin was close shaven, and no moustache.

Yellow ho !

He stealthily looked "the Square all round,"
To see if " a peeler" was there to be found.
At the big gas lamp he made a stop,
As if he meant placing the flag on the top.

Yollow ho

As upwards he clambered, he thence did see
A number of families sitting at tea;
He eyed the dishes and plates very keen,
To see if his " Yellow" was there to be seen.

_
Yellow ho
" Oh! don't go up," said an old woman, " stop!
It's freezing 'like blazes' up there on t' top,
You'll tumble off on t'other side;"
But the spectacled stranger loud replied—
" Yellow ho!"
Oh! please don't go up such a shocking night;
Come sleep on my box, said a cabbie bright ;
On hi, pallid cheek a tear-drop,conie,
But still he remarked, as he upward clomb,
Yellow ho !

Look out for the branch of that high cross-tree,
Dodge falling ice if any you see.
With that "the Party" went home to bed,
And a singlar voice replied overhead,
Yellow ho !

At a quarter-past six that Same afternoon,
An astronomer, taking a look at the moon, •
Heard spoken above him, as often as twice,
The very same words, in a very weak vole(,
Yellow ho

When " the peeler" came round at a quarter past seven,
lie was slow in "his beat," the road being uneven,
Found the stranger dead in the drifted snow,
Still clutching the flag with this motto—
Yellow ho!

Yes ! lifeless, defunct, without any doubt,
The " lamp of his being" decidedly out ;
On the dreary flagstones " poor Kelly" was lying,
And 'twas no more use for him to be saying—
Yellow Butter ho I

RESUItGAM !
All ye who lament that poor Kelly is lost,
Just call at the " Butter Place !"—look at his ghost !
Ire sits in the window. and looks safe and sound,
And will sell you some " Yellow " at Bd. the pound.
Yellow Butter ho !
