TO MR. RICHARD TURNER, ON HIS

REAL JAPAN BLACKING.

AS when the Sun's glad beams diffuse
Resplendent lustre far and near;
So shines your Blacking on my Shoes,
Unsullied, splendid, bright, and clear.
To Sol what planet can compare?
What morning star shines half so bright?
For influence, heat, and light are there.
Hail, matchless source of boundless light !
The blossom spreads itself to thee,
Parent of trees, of flowers, and fruit ;
And in the eve, the western sea
Spontaneous rolls to pay thee snit.
But cease, my Muse, this lofty strain,
Nor Suns, nor Stars, nor Seas explore,
But to the point revert again,
For merit is reserved in stoic.
'Tis merit moves me now to write—
Why should it languish on my tongue?
For merit must be brought to light,
And he to whom it does belong.
Tonnes, thy name on record stands
High on the pinnacle of Fame ;
Tby lively genius then demands
Some little tribute to thy name.
'he Curious Liquid shining Black,
The rare invention of thy mind,
Was not explored in ages back,
Nor even equalled by mankind.
This Blacking when it is applied
To Boots or Shoes, such lustre yields,
That those who use it think with pride
Of Tonnes of St. George's Fields.
'Tis he, and he alone, that can
'lbis matchless composition make ;
Second his great exertions' then'
Itender'd so useful, for his sake.
What, though the rich gay garments boast,
And costly preparations use;
Yet is their grandeur greatly lost,
Without this Blacking on their Shoes.
Urge then your footsteps to the place
Uf this renowned man's abode ;
His habitation you may trace,
By journeying to the London Road.
Ladies are particularly invited to recommend their servants to
st:e this highly esteemed Liquid Blacking, being sanctioned by the
l'ir.t Families In the Kingdom.
Gentlemen may 4.hserve, that this composition, when used for
;twit. Gig or Cartage littrnegs, will produce a brilliant, rich, glossy
Li.trk Lustre,and at the sane :hue acts as a preserver of the Leather.
