ATWIN's TRIBULATIONs.

In form and feature, face and limb,

That folks got taking me for him,
And each for one another
II puzzled all of our kith and kin,
It reached fearful pitch;
For one OF US was born a twip,
And not a soul knew which.
One day, TO make the matter worse,
Before our names were fixed,
And we were being washed by nurse,
We got completely mixed;
And thus, you see, by fate's decree,
Or rather nurses Whim,
NV brother John got christened me,
And / got christened him.
This fatal likeness ever logged
NV footsteps when at school,
And was always getting logged,
When john turned out fool;
put this question, fruitlessly,
To every one knew,
'fWhat would you do, If you were me,
To prove that you were you"
Our close resemblance turned the tide
OF my domestic life,
For somehow my intended bride
Became my brothers. wife
In fact, year after year the same
Absurd mistake went on,
And when died the neighbOrs came
And buried brother John
