THE BALLOON ; or, TAKING POSSESSION
OF A NEW TERRITORY.

A CORONATION INCIDENT. Gr
" Hue never in London has been in hue lite !"
A Cambrian exclaiin'd, at South Mims who resides ;
When plodding his way, sans obstruction or strife,
His steps to the Park curiosity guides,
From whence he hail learnt that a splendid Balloon
Would mount, with a fatal /Eronaut, to the Moon !
The IVelchman manoeuvred to gain a close stand,
And saw with amazement the vessel expand ;
Increasing in growth, by mysterious pursuits
Of skill'd Amateurs, each array'd in bright Boots;
Deriving, it aeem'd, supernatural aid
From forms in the Jet's glossy lustre display'd !
" Cot pless hue !" the Cambrian esclaim'd in affright.
Sublimely as soar'd the gay Orb to the sky,
Soon lost in Immensity's space to the eye!
‘Vhen sped from the scene of ascension his flight,
Nor stopt 'till South Minis he regaiii'd in terrorem.
When floating in air the Balloon hover'd o'er him !
The iEronaut neer Potter's field now descended,
And quickly by followers from Town was attended,
Array'd in the Jet of Renown, as before,
Whose Boots each a Spectre ap;arently bore !
" Cot pless now the Monarch of Wales and the Moon,
And save the Jet-sprites, that possession so soon
Enabled the intrepid Trav'ller to take,
And safely a journey so perilous make r:
Cried Owen ap Morgan :—the curious oration
From all raia'd an uproar of mirthful applause ;
" The Jet," they esclahn'd, " a fresh incident draws
The glee to enhance of this Coronation;
Nor richness of humour, nor ornament lacking,
Sustain'd in their zenith by Warren's Jet Blacking."
