PATHETIC BALLAD.

A Lady gay, once bepsi1t sat
All un,ler a willow tree,
And" Oh! !" said she for wealthy mar
To come and mary me-"
Then IN step't Abner Tompkins bold,
"Oh Lady gay," said he,
"I am rich and handsome man,
And will marry thee"
Then out he took heavy purse,
And chnk'l it in his hands,
All this is mne," said he, "and more
"ln houses, and in lands"-
The Lady's heart was then subdued
son! Abner dear" said She,
"Receive my plight, thou handsome man,
All under this willow tree
And so he did, but On how soon,
DO earthly prospects crash,
And, sail the fate OF ladies' CAV,
Who sell their hearts for cash.
Too soon she found his hoastful talk,
a base deceptive lure,
And he who seem'l so very rich,
Now turn'd out very poor.
The purse he chink'l held borrow'd cash,
(Oh vile perfdious lover,)
And all his houses and his lands,
Were NOR gagged four times over.
Ali fate, how busy wilt thou be,
Rudely our fortunes moulding;
That lady never more took tea
But took to Iuln anG scolding
And Abner Tompkins had his due
For all his lying speeches.
She claw'd his visage black and blue,
And ragged s0sif his brceches!
And nightly to the pond he'd go,
And 81, among the bushes,
And hear The bull frogs sulcn plunge,
And croas among the rushes.
One night, as he sat there, he
A sight that made him shutlder--
Twas Mrs. Tompkins lloating down,
Without a sail or rudder
"AIy DEAR" cried he "yonve drowned yourself
All in this pond Of water
And, soon as ever can strip,
III in aud follow alter"
So off he takes his coat and shirt,
And eke his ragged breeches,
lie piunges in-the night wind means,
He sinks.-the scrccch owl screeches,
Nov, all We handsome gentlemen,
Boast not of borrow'd cash So
And ladies gay, s-H not your hearts,
les, your h,ight hopes may crash SO.
