So farewell to the little good you bear me,
FAREWELL sad farewell, to all my pleasure!
This is the state of Hermit one week he puts forth
feeling bud of hope and sympathy,
And waited with anxious heart the poisoning;
The next week came cold frost like Critique;
And,-when he thought poor easy man, full surely
His bliss was consummating,-gavc him cut,
And then he fell, to had ventured,
Like an angel Gan arch one may beg
To sootho your heart with consolation;
But laid it on too thick My zcaousncss
Has ruined me quite, and nothing IS left me,
But pair of mttens our joint stock in trade;
With no hope whatsoever of mercy,
From the fair being who will forever scold me.
Proud zeal and hope for Seamstress' smiles, leave yc
III break for taller timber: o, how foolish
Is that poor man, who doateth upon woman!
There is, bewixt that smile he would aspire TO-
That sweetest look of woman, and blasted hopes,
Possibly, more fears than famine have;
And when he IS sacked as Hermit late has been
He IS done up pretty brown
SeaInstrcss, did not think to write to thee
But once but thy cold crtiquc did force from me-
The fable of, " the Hermit with his Cat."-
Let us join paws and thus far hear me, Seamstrcss:
And,-when I'm slowed away, as shall be,
In my cold, drcary, hermitage, where word
OF me will Ger more reach tliee,-say taught theo
Say Hcrmit-and not GA ''-once the Co. ...
(Of late dissolved by thy dcspotic word)
Found thee way, T. avoid puppy's stare;
sure and safe one, and thou canst not miss it.
Mark what it is meier smiling look, nor sasoet.
Seamstrcss. charge thee fling away hard feelings;
They re never found in angels; how thou then
Th' observed of all observers win much love?
Look you leap; think twice before you write;
Contlmely wins not qnck as charity.
And let thy pen a sweet indulgence grant
TO rising genius.-Be mild and cut not;
Let all the ends thou an'st at be thy work.
Thy states, this piece; and if thou fst, O, seamstrcs
Why cut and come again. o. Seamstrcss Seamstrcss!
Oh OH! Oh ~ .,
pTwas supposed that Shakespeare demolition was

over his remains, with heart brm full of sorrow and with
