When 'uLar weeds have quitc forget
The power of auction TO rc.isf,
And cliret bottles harl or not
Such iimplrs A. would hold your fist
VIII II publishers no longer seal,
Aud pay for what they stole bclor,
When tn fir>t locomotive wheel
Eolls throu- Ii the IIoosic tunnyI'. bore:
Till then let Cumming blaze away,
And MilleI's saints blow up the gloh,
But when YOU see that blessed DAY,
Hen ori"r your ASCENSION rubc.
