TO THE ILLUSTRATOR.

Send us some fancy cuts to go

With our great author’s next;

Give them the proper twist, that so

We can ad. lib. insert the text.

TWENTY MINUTES AFTER.

Here are the words, 1000 just;

Ideas left out, as you implore,

Makes prices double; but I trust

Your sales will mount a million more.

A LITTLE LATER.

Herewith the pictures, full of fizz!

But why on writers waste your type?

Give us a chance and this pen-biz

From off your pages we will wipe.

—Adam Quince.
