THE SLAVE-OWNERS.
Epigram by G. P. R. James, Historiographer to the Queen, author of "Darnley," "De L'Orme," "The Gipsy," "The Life and Times of Louis the Fourteenth," "Tales of the Passions," &c. &c.
Surely these men must have very black hearts
To treat the poor blacks in this way;
Rather than suffer such terrible smarts,
I wonder they don't run away.
G. P. R. J.
