PATENT BROWN STOUT.

A Brewer in country town
Had got monstrous reputation
No other beer but his went down
The hosts of the surrounding station,
Carving his name upon their mugs,
And painting it on every shutter;
And though some envious folks would ute,
Hints, that its favor come from drugs,
Others maintain'd twas no such matter,
But owing to his monstrous vat,
At least as corpulent as that
At Hcidelbcrg-and some said fattcr.
His foreman was lusty black,
An honest fellow;
But one who had an ugly knack
Of tasting samples as he brewed,
Till he was supplied and mellow.
One day of his topheavy mood,
Having to cross the vat aforesaid,
(Iust when with boiling beer supplied,)
O'ercome with giddincss and qualms, he
Reeld-fell in--and nothing more said,
But in his favourite liquor died,
Like Clearance in his butt of Malmscy.
In all directions round about
The negro absentee was sought,
But as no human noddle thought
That our fat Black was now Brown Stout,
They settled that the rogue had left
The place for debt, or theft.
Meanwhile the beer was day BY day
Drawn into casks and sent away,
Until the lees fow'd thick and thicker.
When 10 +! outstretched upon the ground,
Once more their missing friend they found,
As they had often done-in liquor.
See, cried the moralizing master,
always knew the fellow drank hard,
And prophecied some sad disaster;
His fate should other tipplers strike,
Poor Mungo there he wclters, like
A toast at bottom of tankard!
Next morn publican, whose tap
Had help'd to drain the vat so dry,
Not having heard of the mishap,
Came to demand a fresh supply;
Protesting loudly that the last
All previous specimens surpassed,
Possessing much richer gusto
Than formerly it ever used to,
And begging as special favour
Some more ofthe exact same favour.
Zounds cried the Brewer, that's task
More difficult to grant than ask
Most gladly would give the smack
Of the last beerto the ensuing,
But where am to find {. Black,
And boil him down at every brewing,
