With the tailoring warehouse of MOSES? say you.
Stay, stay, zealous reader, and don't be afraid,
For I'm coming to breaches of promise in trade.
When the Public was courted by MOSES and ,ON;
They offer'd their suit as they ought to have done ;
The Public, (they said,) was their boast and their pride,
And ever since then they've been closely allied.
They promis'd as suitors, in all things to suit ;
And nought has created the slightest dispute.
Their Addresses and Dresses minutely agree,
And honour—strict honour—at all times we see.
The Public perceiving how matters were plann'd,
Have taken E. MOSES and SON by the hand ;
And now era their mutual interests wed,
And MOSES and SON have fulfill'd all they've said,
May the union subsist as it ever has done
May
the Public esteem more completely be won
