At HINT TO THE LOVERS OF GTN.
Bv the \uthorof the
“Lovers or Rom ”
WHILE others put gamblers to frame,
F.xpofing the dtpth of their ftn,
1 hope they'll not thine me to blame,
For addreffing the lovers of Gin.
Some that upon brand'}, or rum,
Some greedily take them both in j
And \et there are certainly feme,
Who arc the true lovers of Gin.
Jdeh’Id where the conjugal /Irife,
Fid ft I in yon eottaoe begin !
Why the hufbandabandons the wife f
Becatife Jhe's a lover of Gin.
Then turn and behold the reverse,
But not the reverfe of the fin ;
That wwtan is under a curfe.
Whofe hujbaitd’s a lover of Gin.
See yon felly wretch pnfs along,
Whofebonts roumaytell thro'the frin,
He once was both healthy and Prong
But new he's a lover of Gin.
The tradesman lies pining in jail,
Whofe earnings were [pentat the inn;
Flo friend can he find for his bail,
Beciufe he's a lover of Gin.

Two perfons running againfl

Vices are infectious, and the

corrupted. The company of the
fabbath breaker, the prolane

dangerous. When vice becomes
familiarized to our view we loefe
the abhorrence of it almoft in-
