He Wore a Prim Imperiel.

He wore prim imperie',
The time that first we met;
And round his chin, from ear to ear,
A fine mustache was set;
His manner had a brasiness,
His voice fat'ring tone,
Sure tokens of deceitful hearts,
TO modest worth unknown;
saw him but moment,
But quite enough, trow,
To discern meath those features.
A soul to sin not slow.
Decked with the same imperiel.
When next we met, he wore;
But tn expressian of his lustful eye.
Was DINNER than before;
His nose was red and carbuncled,
His face all covered DER
With blotches, and his air bespoke.
Passions most direful power;
saw him but moment,
But long enough knew.
To convince me that my prescience,
Was likely to prove true.
Yet once again Isee tina: face,
No prim mustaehe is there,
The drunkard's old slouched hat oonceals
His now dishevelled hair;
He seeks in silent solitude,
To drown his many caresC)
From out that half-pint brandy flask,
He in his pocket bears;
I see him poor debauchee,
Ye. feel like weeping, when
l contrast his condition now,
With what it might have been.

And all feel is contradictory.

Is sweeter than the sweetest thing know:
And then thy limpid eyes are all the while
Sparkling and dancing. and thy fair checks

Expresseth an angelic misery;
Thy tears are shed with such gentle G; ace,
Thy words fall soft. yet sweet as words can

And so love thee mute.
Thus have come to the conclusion sweet;
Nothing thou dost can less than perfect be;

Yet one thing more I'd fain behold in thee
