IHE•POINTEIVS EPITAPH.
WRITTEN BY A SPORTSMAN.
Farewell, poor Tray, farewell 1 thy mournful fate
Has touched my heart, and filled my eyes with water;
For oh, thy services were truly great,
And such as should be valued by a sperter.
Yes, thou had'at worth, and memory's pen has booked it,
And grieved am I to find that thou host hooked it.
E-0 more thou'lt mark the fated 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 past kicked the bucket.
Another dog must show me what his nose is, •
When sporting in my shooting-coat from MOSES:
. Tray, if thou couldst see thy mater now,
,_l3ressed in the shooting-coat which. MOSES sold him,
Ition•dst stare at the improvement, and allow
'Tomas quite a pleasure eveu to behold him.
''HOSES and SON thotedst say have every reason
To claim renewed support throughout the season.
I never saw, I candidly confess,
Such admirable articles for sporting :
laundreds of sportsmen to obtain such dress,
To MOSES' noted Warehouse are resorting.
