solemn import, why there have been in this state 50
lew ievlyas OF religion for long period while God is
visiting many other portions Of our country with the CO.

Not only preys upon the heart aud bowels,
But tears the reason in its germ,
Just like horse hide when torn by roweIs,
II keeps man from living half his life,
And smoking hot internal,
And often causes him % beat his wife
This Worm Internal

And sometimes urge INN I'd break LEG, or
Ann, and stops the sources Of his wealth,
To leave its ,ictim nothing bat a beggar.
Like the Old sire Of lies,
All social ties
This cruel Worm with pleasure tears asunder.
II sours the best affection We should prize,
As cream Is Soured By thunder.
II causes him to roam,
When ne should hc III work az home.
To nurse bis means and multiply his riches,
Til gold and happiness are gone,
And the poor victim scarce can call his own,
His ragged brecches
