• THE' FAIR CIRCASSIAN,
AND THE GENII IN THE BOOTS.
HE charming Circassian,whose beauty refulgent,
T I'o Dames of high quality only indulgent,
Is still from the gaze of our Exquisite. voila :
One day, at her window resuming her station
Unseen—the bright Boots met her quick observation,
Whise Weasus's fine Liquid each object reveard.
Alewife? the Jet of renown was array'd in ;
Hee eye caught the forms of reflection its shade in,
And wonder her features of love then expresed.
" O. Prophet !" exclaimed the delighted Circassian,
" Thy Genii are these the bright Boots now that pass in,
This youth by thy Howie protected, carress'd!'
" Fair Star!" said a Eunuch, " admired Circassian!
These Boots in (of splendour all others surpassing)
If Genii or Howl, I fly in pursuit !"
" Diabk ! how foolish!" a waiting maid cries,—
" My Princess!" in terror the Eunuch replies,
" A foolish Diable it is. in each Boot !"
" Not so—'tis de foolish Diable in you!"
The damsel retorted—" Madame, vat you view
Boots in, like vision dat make so much wonder,
. .

Appear all de Boots in of Paris and Loathe !
No Genii of Mahomet, but genius of WARAIN
De shadows creating, bis Liquid did glare in !"
The beauteous Circassian was struck 'Atli surprise;
The brilliance of Wastaines fine Jet now supplies
The gem of the East with renewed admiration:
And still to her Mansion, with fond expectation,
His eyes, as the Exquisite anxiously shoots,
Her eyes of jet hue meet the Jet of his Boots.
