That same SUFFEWS whom you, VAans, know,
Whose witty talk runs on in ceaseless flow,
Is also Poet of most copious vein,
And bni Isis thongand lines on every strain :
His greatest pride to see his rhyming hoards
Not on pt sin foolscap written, and in boards,
Unt on wove hot-:rest; with broad margin round,
Gilt, letter'd, stamp's!, and in Morocco bound': -
Splendid they look—‘and yet, when read, their wit
Will seem for plough or spade than pen more fit.
So different (sum himself he seetts—so blunders
That one who :abours through his nonsense wonders
How he, for polish faru'd through all the town,
When verse he writes, can be a very clown 1,
Yet this himself he sees not—and wl.at worse is,

ne'er sa happy as wiien writing verses!
So vain is hr ! so full of self-conceit !
Indeed we all allow the self-same cheat;
We none of us from faults like his can screen us,
And each—sad truth ! in some things is Su FFEN
To other's errors we are never blind,
But cannot see our own full sack behind.
