RICII AND POOR ; 'OR, SAINT AND SINNER.
.
ane
The poor man's sins are glaring;
In the face of ghostly warning,
He i 3 caught in the fact
• Of an overt act,
Buying greens on a Sunday morning !
- • The rich man's sins are under
The rose of wealth and station,
And escapes the sight
Of the cliddr.nt of light,
Who are wise in their generation!

r'cli man has a kitchen
Wherein to cook his dinner ;
The pour wh• would roast,
To the baker's must post,
And thus becomes a sinner !
The rich man has a cellar,
And a ready butler by him;
The pour man must steer
For his pint of beer,
Where the saint can't choose but spy him !

Tire rich man's
painted windows
Bide the concerts of the quality;
• The pour can hut share
A crack'd fiddle in the air,—
hich offends all sound morality!
The rich man is invisible
In the crowd of his gay society :
But the poor man's delight
Is a sore in the sight,
And a stench in the nose of piety !
