PETER FROST, OR TIIE POLAR LINGUIST.
To draw a long bow is a Mariner's glory,
That is, to narrate a moat marvellous story.
A jolly Jack Tar, who all dangers had shoed
With brave Captain Parry, a Fact thus declar'd :
" Ise-bound during winter, and little to do,
We Whited our Boots, and went forth to pursue
Amusement on shore ; but the frost so intense,
Induced us to build a snug hut for defence :
Now mind me,—not long were we hous'd when we found
That all our jaw-tackle had run fast aground.
Onr words were all froze in the air !—'tis no joke.
And not a voice heard, although ev'ry man spoke.
'Teas strange, but not knowing what then was the matter,
We thought Polar wizzants set spell on our clatter,
So hasten'd on board. %Well, six months after that
The very same hut in, sonic Esquimau: sat,
On shore as we stroll'd, and a thaw just began.
li'hen forth, talking English, they presently ran !
' You've been to the Strand,' they said, judgnien t not laeking,
Your Boots are illumin'd by Warren's Jet Blacking.'
These words by the natives were often repeated,—
W heti entering the hut our amaze was completetk
Foe, thawed into utterance we heard the lull flow
af sentences spolsen there six months ago 1—
We breath'd not a syllable, tongue-tied with awe,
A 4earn'd Polar Linguist to find in the thaw,
And ',ft in the air while the voices were clacking.
The dissolving words pronounc'd • Warren's Jet Blacking.'"
The Esquimau: etught thus our language, and may
Repeat Warren's Blacking?' to Tiute's latest day,
When some future Parry will guess, from the whole,
That Warren was known front the South to North Pole!
This Easy Sitining• and Brilliant BLACKING, prepared by
ROBERT WA RR N, 30, Strand, London; and sold in every
Town in the Kingdom.
Lignid, in bottles. lid. hod. 12(1. and MI. each. Also Paste
Blacking, in Pots, 6tl. 12d. and 18i. each. A. Shilling Pot of
