the CITY of CHESTER
Hail, Chester, hail I thy antiquated city
Shall form a subject for ray humble muse ;
Tor certainly I think- 'twould he a pity
So good an opportunity to lose.
The month of May is nigh, when thy locality
Will be a scene of stir and joviality.
My sporting pals, who number very many,
Are daily talking of the Chester Cup ;
All are aroused—nor can I point to any,
But who delight to bring the subject up :
Jack, Harry, Cuncliffe, Wiltshire, Burgess, Lester,
Anticipate the coming race at Chester.
Thousands from London at thy coming Meeting
Will tread thy streets, thy conrse, thy wtills, thy rows,
And for this very purpose crowds are treating
At MOSES' noted Mart for new Spring clothes—
Clothes which will doubtless tempt the Chester people
To send to MOSES, facing Algate steeple.
MOSES and SON, who well have done their duty,
In furnishing both good and cheap attire,
Will show you there such specimens of beauty,
As your discerning folks will all admire ;
Dress which will gaily deck your race-course ample,
And be admitted as a perfect sample.
The Trowsers, Coats, and Tests of laid year's season,
Mado your good people stare with all their eyes ;
But, thanks to MOSES, I have every reason
To think the present fashion far out-vies.
And when you see the stylish, you'll know it,
Nor have a cause to contradict the poet.
In Boots or Shoes, and Hats, and Shawls for ladies,
MOSES and SON will show you what they are;
And seeing what the nature of their trade is,
Tour citizens will aid them, though so far.
More might I say, but I conclude my Oitty,
By recommending MOSES to your City.
