THE NEGRO BOY, OR SUPERSTITION SUB-
DUED.
Near Portsmouth, the " Battle of Minden " the Slaw,
An Inn long renown'd for good cheer and old wine,
A handsome young hostess, and excellent lodging;
An I /Nicer lately cane over from France,
No longer in idle attendance to dance,
His occupants Monsieur moat gladly disgorging.
'Chia Officer, then, ev'ry comfort ensuring,
At Battle of Minden ' a lodging procuring,
And items of Use and of Ornament lacking;
In dress predetermin'd to shine all resplendent,
Directed, o'er all, that his sable attendant
A quantum should purchase of Warren's Jet Blasking.
The mild youth of Afric the mandate obey'd,
When lo! in the Boots, by the luminous shade
Of the Jet, like a mirror, his dark features glaring ;
He geed in amaze, long with extacy Mute.
Thai angled, as laugh d with him the Child in the Boot,
And eagerly thence to his Massa repairing ;
" 0 come, Massa Captain," he said, " come and see
Him live in de Boot—Wacky child' as soe—
Mush like as my poor leteel balder him seem,
Hon die--him come lack—die no more," and his eyes
Were glisten'd by joy, when, aghast with surprise,
Two " Childs ' he viewed in the Boot's jetty gleam.
His Mara the cause of the vision explained;
And now in the youth was delusion
His mind Superstition no longer attacking ;
Enhanc'd thence, in fame, is the fine glossy hue
That dress can improve, and dark Error subdue,
Of Warren's resplendent, inimited Blacking !
