MOSES AND THE MUSES
A TALE.
The pluses, good reader, (unless I am wrong),
Have ever been view'd as the handmaids of song.
These maids (nine in number) so fiction relates
Are able to govern poetical pates.
And thoroughly knowing what all kind of wit is,
To help a poor poet in writing his ditties.
And now fir my story—a singular one—
These nymphs were invited by MOSES and SON,
Who wished to inform them, of what they must sing,
And to tell them of matters concerning the spring.
We thank you, (said MOSES,) for services past;
Nor have we the slightest reflection to east.
Much attention to MOSES and SON you've attracted,
And have faithfully told of the manner they've acted ;
In telling the world what our tailoring trade is,
You never have once over-rated it, ladies.
You have told what is true—you have spoken with reason,
And now let us come to the present spring season.
Please to take a -walk round (said E. MOSES and SON)
And see for yourselves what a deal we have done.
Here aro waistcoats of newest design for the spring,
And trowsers and over-coats fit for a king.
Just notice (said MOSES) the dress coats and frock,
And the elegant hats, and the hosiery stock.
You've plenty to write on, especially so
When we say that the prices were never so low ;
80, tell to the public what fashions attract,
And tell them how MOSES and SON mean to act."
Here the ladies all curtsey'd, and promis'd to sing
With truth and with warmth of the stock for the spring.
