THE HOAX;
OR, TEST OF FASHION,
A WU? INDIAN iNCIDII247.
IN Kingston, the pride of Jamaica's fair Isle,
Where Fortune is prone on her vot'ries to smile,
A hoax was tried lately, a bet to decide,
(The parties agreed by such proof to abide),
Which one of the arts in the island supplied,
Was must to fine Taste and high Fashion allied!
Next day on a Dealer in deluge there came
in endless variety, items of fame,
Both native and forei%n, who saw with surprise
The produce of Hoax in succession still rise;
The articles brought by their ynodecs and makers,
All•dattsmen including, and evenisaertalicrs„
l'we here of deep colour assuming the mien,
,Four long-visaged mutes in their sables were seen,
Intent on Mortality's victims to thrive,
And bury the Dealer or dead or alive !
The Dealer on battle inclining to border,— • "4 Behold," one and all then exclaiMid, ssyour ordet!„
While " littler with your evils not gouda," he cried our,
And scatti.el each.poi table item about.
" Tau too," to the mutes " with your damnable faces,
Blade op still zs wanted, in sotrow's grimaces, '
The Lice I to tragedy quickly shall tarn,
If here in my mansion you longer sojourn!"
The conflux at last deemed it prudent to scamper,
Cue man only left, with a well-furnished hamper:—
** MI! this," said the Dealer, the contentsnopaehifti,
" is wekurne unasked for,!" 'twos Wasasn's Jnr WAcsi" •
doubt thus resolv'd, in the empire of Taste,.
That Wancts's fine Jar, so resplendent and chaste,
is pot in renown, it still reigns as the test
• Of Fashion, the Itaunds throughout tpf the West. •
