Tbs Jewe/i and her Sen.
gp Pittr Pindar , Esq.
POOR Leri had a hichltfs foa,
Who, rulhing to obtain the fortmoft feat,
In Imitation of th* ambitious great,
High from the gali’ry, tie the play begun,
He fell all plump into the pit,
Dead in a minute as a nit:
In Ihott, he broke hia pretty Hebrew neck,
Indeed and very dreadful w*e the wreck!
The mother was diftraded, raving, wild—
Shriek’d, tore her hair, embrac'd and kifs’d
the child,
Abided every heart with grief around;
Boon aa the lhow*r of tears was fomewhttpaft,
And moderately calm th’ byderic blart,
And call about her eyes in thought profound:
And being with a saving knowledge blefs’d,
She thus the play-house manager addrefs’d
« Sher, I’m de Moter of the poor chew lad,
« Dar met mifsfartin here so bad—*
m gher, touf* has de (hilling back, you
«W«»w,
«« Aa Moses has not sea da show."

DO you said fanny, t’other day.
In earned love me as you fay i
Or, ate thole tender words applied
Alike to fifty girls be fide ?
Dear, cruel girl, cried I, forbear!
For, by tbofe eye* —those lips—l fwear—*
•-She flopp’d me, as the oath l took,
And cried, you’ve sworn, now kilt the book.
