THE CHRISTMAS CATTLE SHOW
TO JOHN BULL, ESQ.
As the season of Christmas is fast drawing on,
I've a very great mind to address you, fliend John,
Four show of prize meat is a subject too full
• To be met with a slight—is it not, Mr. Bull ?
Like yourself, Mr. John, I delight in these things.
And the many old customs which Christmas time brings.
I trust that the "show" at the noted bazaar
• Will show in its prizes what Englishmen are.
lie doubt you'll be proud when your roguish eye falls,
On the corpulent cattle arranged in the stalls.
Methinks I can see, "the head and the chief,"
Surveying your bullocks, as big as bull beef.
• I warrant your warm English heart will be full,
When you cast your " sheeps' eyes" at your sheep, Mr. Bull.
And won't you feel jolly, and won't you look big,
• At the porpus possessing the name of "prize pig."
But I say, Mr. Bull, I would have you to know,
That yours is by no means the only "prize show."
B. MOSES and SON, let me tell you, good sire.
Have prepared such a show as you'll greatly admire.
The " stock" (not a " live stock") is nought more or less,
Than what may be viewed as
" A SHOW OF PRIZE DRESS."
Now really, John Bull, if you know what is done,
In preparing for Christmas by MOSES and SON,
To their grand City Mart on your stick you would toddle,
And round the "Prize Dress Show" exultingly waddle.
And John (you will pardon me calling you John),
I'm sure you'd not rest till you tried something on.
THE SHOW OF PRIZE HATS
I would have you to know,
Can never be equalled wherever you go.
Elastic and shapely, and glossy, and light,
These Hats will be found on the very first sight;
And I'm sure your good sense a 11 convince you that none
Can equal the Hats of E. MOSES and SON.
Anther rare sight, which I know you won't lose,
Will be found when you witness
THE SHOW OF PRIZE SHOES.
Such prime Boots and Shoes will be certain to please,
For I knew you've got taste in such matters as these.
You know pretty well how a thing should be done
And I'm sure you'll give credit to MOSES and SON.
Another attraction Illustrious " Sir,"
Refers to the ladies-
- A. SHOW OF PRIZE FUR.
B. MOSES and SON—In their Fars smart and warm
Seem bent upon taking the ladies by storm,
Such Muffs and such Boas, and such Mantles are there
As certainly never protected the fair.
THE SHOW OF PRIZE HOSIERY
Next let me name,
Which I cannot help praising exactly the same ;
The stock, Sir, is beautiful, varied, and full,
And really without a defect, Mr. Bull.
I trust after this you'll too make one
