BY MARY +. TUCKER.

This is my simple song. It's true
My songs are never oyer-nice:
And yet I'll try and scatter through,
A little pinch of good advice.
Thou listen pompous friend. and learn
Nsver boast Of much renown;
For fortunes wheel is on the tarn,
And some go up and some come down.
know vast amount of stocks
A vast amo mt Of pride insures;
And fate has picked 80 many locks
wouldn't like to warrant yours.
Rene mber then and never spurn
The one whose hand is hard and brown;
For he is likely to 60 up,
And you are likely to come down.
Another thing you will agree,
(The truth may be as we'll confcssed)
That Goldfish Aristocracy''
Is hut scaly thing at best;
The fishes large and fishes strong,
May seek the little ones to drown;
Yet fishes all, both great and small,
Are going up and coming down.
Our lives are full OF chance and change,
And chance you know is neysr sure;
And twere doctrine new and strange.
That places high are most secure
And though the tickle god may smile,
And yield the scepter and the crown,
'Tis only for little while,
That A goes up and B comes down.
This world, for you and me my friend,
Ha,h somsgling more than pounds or pene
Then let me humD)y recommend
A little use Of common sensc
Thus lay al pride Of place aside,
And have care on whom YOU frown,
For fear yca'll see him going Up,
While you are coming down.
