IHE POINTER'S EPITAPH.
WRITTEN BY A SPORTSMAN.
Farewell, poor Tray, farewell ! thy mournful fete
Has touched my hesrt, and filled my eyes with water;
For oh, thy services were truly great,
And such as should be valued by a sporter.
Yes, thou had'st worth, and memory's pen has booked it,
And grieved am I to find that thou hast hooked it.
No more thou'lt mark the fa' ed Bird aloft,
Nor watch while in my sporting bag I tuck it ;
This thou hest done full many a time and oft,
But all is over—thou hast kicked the bucket.
Another dog must show me what his nose is,
When sporting in my shooting-coat from biOSES.
Ah. Tray, if thou couldst see thy master now,
Dressed in the shooting-coat which MOSES sold him,
Thou'dst stars at the improvement, and allow
'Twas quite a pleasure even to behold him.
ROSES and SON thou'dst say have every reason
To claim renewed support throughout the season.
I never saw, I candidly confess,
Such admirable articles for sporting ;
Hundreds of sportsmen to obtain such dress,
To MOSES' noted Warehouse are resorting.
Better or cheaper coat ne'er honoured Britain,
And that is why this epitaph is Written.
