All here it is I'm famous now
An author and a poet!
It really is in print Ye gods j
How proud TIL be to show it!
And gentle Anna What thrill
Win animate her breast,
To read those ardent lines and know
To whom they are addressed!
Why; bless my soul! here ssomcthing strange
What can the paper mean
By talking of the graceful brooks,
!, That gander Ger the green?
Aud here's instead off,
Which makes it tipping rlll;
Well seek the shad instead OF shade'
And hell instead of bill
They look so-what Pa line is out
1t really is unkind;
And now to think, the stupid tool,
For bland has printed blind
Was ever such provoking work?
IT'S curious, by the by.
How any thing is rendered blind
By giving it an eye
Hast thou no tears Z? the is left out
Hast thou no ears instead;
[ hope that thou art dear is put
I hope that thou art dead
Who ever saw in such space
so many plumbers crammeu
Those gentle eyes bedimmed is spelt
Those gentle eyes bedamued!
The color of the rose is nose;
Affection is affection;
7 wonder if the likeness holds
In fact as we'll as diction?
Thou art a friend-the is gone
Who ever would have deemed
That such trihing thing would change
4 friend into fend
Thou art the same, isrendered lame
1t really is too bad
And here because the is out,
My lovely maid is mad
They drove her blind by poking in
An eye-a process;
And now they We gouged it out again,
And made her crazy too.
Let's stop and recapitulate;
I've damned her eyes-that' plain
I've told her she's lunatic
Aud blind and deaf, and lame;
Was ever such horrid flash
In poetry or in prose?
I've said she was fend, and praised
The color of her nose
I wish | had that editor
About half minute.
I'd bang him to his hearts content,
And with an h begin it;
I'd jam his body, eyes and bones,
And spell it with d,
And send him to that hill of his
He spells it with ane!
