MDCCCXLVII. and MDCCCXLVIII.
TO THE PUBLIC.
" Look on this picture, and on this."—Shakspeare.
As now another year is passed away.
MOSES and SON their wonted tribute pay;
And freely own, with gratitude sincere,
Tim many favours of another year.
Oft have their warm acknowisdonsats been made,
For vest success, and glorious public aid ;
lint rover did such staunch support appear,
' As that which honoured the departed year.
Spring, summer, autumn, winter, bear fresh proof,
Of crowding throngs beneath thoir trading roof.
What January's frosts were keenly felt,
Thousands with MOSES liberally dealt;
And Winter Overcoats, to suit the cold,
Were purchased at their Warehouse million-fill.
In February's month. and blust'rirn. March,
The public sought the Emporium's lofty arch.
In fickle April, and in milder May,
310SES and SON'S Spring dresses bore the sway.
In pleasant Jane, and changeable July,
Vast multitudes were daily seen to buy ;
And such supporters failed not to remember
The City Mart in August and September.
And in October's month did thousands press,
At MOSES' Mart for matchless Autumn dress.
In dull November, and December, too,
MOSES and SON were ever kept in view.
And thus did new encouragements appear
Throughout the circle of the by-past Year z
Not only in attire, but boots and shoes,
And also in the furs which ladies use ;
And throngs of buyers might we daily see,
Obtainining first-class Hats at Eighty-three.
In Hosiery and matchless outfits too,
The trade at MOSES' Warehouse daily grew.
The glorious marks of favour thus presented,
Proclaim the by-gone year unprecedented.
'Twas truly pleasing to behold a throng,
Crowding the spacious Warehouse all day long;
While all the current coins, with constant jingle,
Amid the busy stir were heard to mingle.
Nor was it ally sight to cause a frown,
While orders for bespoke were putting down.
Swift went the knibs, awl orders swiftly took,
And very swiftly filled each order-book.
The Cuttinz-room at MOSES' mart has been,
" A cutting sight"—an ever-busy scene.
No time for Idleness—no lengthy leisure,
Could here he had for cutter, shears, or measure:
All was activity in every part,
And business "ruled the roast" at MOSES' Mart.
Though scarcity of money roused alarm,
MOSES and SON sustained no trading harm.
; on the contrary. as people fou.A,
The real value of a current pound,
They flocked to MOSES' Mart, assured that there,
Unmatched economy is brought to bear.
What non' remains ? A task devolves on MOSES,
Now Eighteen Forty-seven for ever closes.
Most heartily do Messrs. MOSES tender
Their thanks for what a generous public render.
But thanks ttr, thousand times they might repeat,
And leave the task of thanking incomplete.
Yet, happily, they've more that they can state,
And thus they're led to Eighteen Forty-eight.
In Eighteen Forty-eight they mean to steer
Beyond the bounds o 1 each succeeding year.
The recent purchases which they have made,
Will add new benefits to all their trade.
When all the markets were depressed, they bought
For moderate sums their cloths superbly wrought.
They saw the opportunity, and now,
A most immense reduction they &Hsi+.
Such are the benefits which here await
The purchaser of Eighteen Forty-eight.
May MOSES anti the public ever be,
On pl,asing terms of trading unity ;
May both the buyers and the sellers find,
That all their mutual interests are combined ;
And may the friends of 'MOSES (small kind great)
Enjoy, in every possible estate,
't happy year in Eighteen Forty-eight.
