THE TOWER;
OR, SUPERSTITION SUBDUED.
yE Towers of Julius, London's tasting shame,
With many a foul and midnight murder fed,'
A Sentry % who the Odes of Gray had read,
The plaintive Bard, immortalized by Fame—
This Sentry yet to superstition prone,
Nail on each deed of death,—the fancied moan
Of slaughteed victim strikes the lisening ear,
And mow, in thought, the ghastly shades appear.
His mind these dread ideas while possessing,
Poad'ring the mode of properly addressing
The airy visitants, their forms if rearing,
An OMcer, his vigilance attacking,
Appeared, in Boots illnm'd by W.% ;MIDI'S BLACKING,
The Sentry's image in the Jet appearing.
Undaunted, ' Who goes there?' the Sentry cried—
' A Friend r—a low, sepulchral voice, replied.
• Not se, if right I guess, no friend of mine.—
Advance, one only—give the Countersign r
The Sentry's image in the Jet's fine hue
New shone—A tiny Imp's dark form to view !
' One r cried the Officer, 4 Pray where's the other?'
• Close by your cloven foot I spy another,'
The Sentry mid, ' So courteous all,ter I)evil,
• With aU your candying tongue and manners civil,
• For once your subtlety with match is fitted ;
• A British Soldier has your art outwitted.'
Ills strange belief and dauntless courage noted,
The Sentry late now Serjeant stands promoted ;
The Tower now no glaring ghost attacking,
risorch'd AU—by W•aluni's splendid Bircento !
This Easy Shining and Brilliant BLACKING Prepared by
