TO THE "BARD OF THE MINORIES."
Bard of the Minories I Excuse my freedom
In writing es to one so famed as you ;
And if you think it worth your while to read 'eat,
An honour to my humble pen you'll do.
My motive in the lines which I present you,
Is simply this—l wish to compliment you.
I don't refer so much to skill in verses,
As to your strict adherence to the fact;
The trading story which your Muse rehearses
Is perfectly as Messrs. MOSES act.
- Poets, 'tie said, are rather fond of fiction,
But your assertions challenge contradiction.
MOSES and SON, you say, possess great merit
As Artistes in the making of attire ;
And, Sir, my commendation they inherit,
For MOSES' dress I very much admire.
They have a claim (and every day they show it)
Not less than that asserted by their poet.
All that you say of MOSES I rely on,
Your compliments on style and strength are due,
There's not a garment that I fix my eye on,
But proves good quality and cheapness too.
Tour verse is true, Sir , ay ! and so your prose is,
Nor have you ever overrated MOSES.
Z. MOSES and SON invite especial attention to their Shooting-
rtts, which possess a peculiar cut and style, adding much comfort
he fit. E. M. and S. are convinced they will be much approved
