A FEW THOUGHTS AT WESTMINSTER-HALL.
The Judges assembled at Westminster-hall,
On a matter important to great and to small ;
The scene was exciting, the Court was a craram'd
And all seemed absorbed in the subject of Ilampdez.
Each opened his ears, while he opened his vision,
All anxious to come at the Judges' decision.
"Tyres pleasing t• see, in a place so Immense,
The " gents of tke long robe" wills interest intense ;
While the Judges appeared in their wags and their ermine,
The Bishop of Hereford's case to determine.
lily opinion concerning this matter—but st
'Tis a party affair, and the subject mast troy.
Per a topic like this—apolitical one—
Is kept in the back-ground by MOSES and SON.
Tet MOSES and SON your attention would call
To a few scatter'd musings in IN estmlnster-hall.
'I here were certainly many things there to adult: e,
While thousands assembled with laaltlfss
.attire.
T could trace, while I stood in the old justice-room,
'The presence of MOSES (at least in costume) ;
Each of which (though I wouldn't rim anything, down),
In beauty could vie with the lomg legal gown.
While I gazed on the ermine the :fudges had on,
I thought of the Furs of E. MOSES and SON.
The Boots and the Shoes, and the Prime Paris Hats,
The Gloves awl the Kerchiefs, t' e Stocks and Cravats,
Plainly proved that the concourse in Westminster-hall,
fled given another great building a call.
May they do so again—may the Mart be " cramm'd 'un,"
And thus concludes MOSES, with Penn Dickson Hampden.
