1:1 :E' T W'rE R GUN S;
OR. THE MOTION OF THE MONSTERS..
Again imagination leads her aid,
In kind suggestions to the bard of trade ;
And under her instructions I describe
A relent meeting of the cannon tribe.
You'll understand that at a certain hour,.
I trode the purlieus of our ancient Tower;- '
When strange to tell, the subjects of my ditty,
Were holding a discussion in committee.
Vast numbers of the Guns were hereassiembled,
• And as they spohe the far-famed fortress trembled.
So down I sat, and down I took the speeches,
And underneathyou'll understand what each is.
" I rise," said Fulminator, " with a notion
Of calling notice to a special motion ;
.Nor will your mighty Gunships take amiss '
My well-meant proposition—which is this
That Messrs. MOSES' Mart of wide repute
Be duly honoured with a grand salute.
I'm sure," said he, "an looking at their - -
• . • • CLOTHES,
You'll acquiesce in what I now propose.
Yes, brother inmates of this noted garrison,
MOSES you know are far beyond comparison.
All who behold the articles admit
:The beauty"ef their style, and make, and/it."
"Just so," said Thunderbolt, "you've rightly rec' oned, •
And willingly your motion. 0/1111 second.
• The Mart at which I'm pointing with my muzzle, • '
To competition is a downright puzzle.
THE HATS OF MOSES
In the way they suit,
Are equally deserying a salute. • •
• These valued tiles are such as no, one shuns, '•
' - So get your Souch-holes ready, brother Guns."
" I beg," said Fury," to support the motion,
For I have often entertained the notion.
Atad when I see the worth of
MOSES' BOOTS, '
I think they merit fifty grand salutes.
' The Boots and Shoes of MOSES, firmly Wrought,
Cause, like the Tower Guns, a good report."
" That's perfectly correct," said Cannon
" The. Mart of NIOSE-S never had its fellow;
And this, you know, applies to • -
MOSES' FUR,
•
So, fire away, and make a glorious stir."
"Bravo," said Waterloo, "prepare your noses,
And don't forget
THE HOSIERY OF MOTES.
Yon know the Hosiery is good and cheap, • .
Give it a sally, boys, let no one sleep."
The motionibeing put. at ones was carried.
And I to see the issue, gladly tarried.
The tiring soon commenced, when all around,
• Thd City echoed with the moving sound ;
And while the. Guns in grand salutes were firing,
Thousands at MOsES' Warehouse were attiring ;
And ofteu was the observation istade--'-
That MOSES' are the " Two Great Guns" of trade.
