A NEW STRAND GHOST.
AS pensive I sat in my evening chair,
In my musings my Cdney was dra'wn
To my bill worn out boots—they no lustre would bear,
But were rough, and decayed, and forlorn!
When sudden batore me a GIIOST seemed to rise,
Array'd in superlative Lloom ;
And while 1 gas's! round me in silent surprize,
Its radiance enliehterted the room.
Its form was a Boor, and its soft jetty bue '
In Wive surpassed the rich ray
Of the bright solar beam that dot]] dazzle the view
Ere it passeth in splendour away!
Then," Whence and what art thou, bright vision ?" I cried,
"And wherefore thus com,•st thou here ?"
When the Ghost of the Boot mildly speaking replied,
"l'hat thy boots may in beauty appear !
" Onee, like those thou wearest, my form was decay's!,
No jet bad my airfare to %oast;
My grain was destroy'd and no lustre tesplay'd,
hs polish—its beauty was lost :
" Yet still I no censure attribute to you--
Alt the skill you possered you bad tried ;
you used could restore my lost hue,
'ibis' with diligent labour applied.
" But thus to instruct you-I come frost the grave
Array'd in my beauty divine;
To teach you the gloss of my brethren to save,
And to make their bloom equal to mine.
" Then haste thee to WAS N—his Ihulins it Is
That alone will such hairs display;
No Magid*: in gooduess is equal to his
Nor lath richness and jet can convey !"
