Like every other sin: ~
The taxes all together lay
No weight 50 great asgin.
The State compels no man to drunk
Compels no man to game.
It's gin and gambling sink him down
To rage and want and shame.
In many a house the harmless babes
Are poorly clothed and fed. +
Because the craving Gin shop takes =
The Chilaren's daily bread. -
Those little Children trembling there -

Blessbc those friends to human kind,
Who take those children up.
Fer they have drank the bitter dregs,
Of their sad parents cup. 81.
