DOMINE SAMPSON'S CALCULATION.
PRODIGIOUS!!
ASCHOOLMASTER lately, in judgment dot
lacking,
His fame to raise higher, sold WARILEN'S Jet*Blacking ;
Thus blending, with classical learning and chaste,
A brilliant example of Fashion and Taste.
A Sailor, one morning, facetiously free,
A question propos'il in the plain Rule of Three—
" If turnips a bunch cost me two-pence, we'll say,
Then what for potatoes a load must I pay ?"
The Schoolmaster paus'd on this curious attack,
Now bad, as the Querist " all aback 1"
" Two dozen I want, (said our Tar), of the Jet,"
And thus on each bottle the value was set—
That at a sole farthing the first should be reckon'il,
And only one halfpenny paid for the second ;
One penny the third, always doubling the last
In police, till two dozen in progress had pass'd.
Jack chuckled to think what a bargain he'd made,
And swore that the Schoolmaster knew not his trade;
But Dornine Sampson soon made out his bill,
" Prodigious !" the mind with amazement to fill!
Seventeen Thousand Four Hundred and Seventy-six Pound*,
Here Jack in terrific amazement cried" Zounds !"
Five Shillings and three-pence three-farthings, with packing,
For two dozen bottles of Woaartt's Jet Blacking !
Jack swore 'twas a lie—when the question to try,
The parties resorted to skill'd arbitration,
When prov'd as correct was the large calculation !
Poor Jack was oblig'd to knock under and buy !
tiut not at tha price, for on friendly advice
Let off for a treat, he still prOne is in backing
The merits of WA wales invaluable Blacking !
This Easy Shining and Brilliant BLACK IN G Prepared by
