And what he vends in ample letters told,
The words ‘Repository,’ ‘Warehouse,’ all
He uses to enlarge concerns so small:
He to his goods assigns some beauty’s name,
Then in her reign, and hopes they’ll share her fame,
And talks of credit, commerce, traffic, trade,
As one important by their profit made;
But who can paint the vacancy, the gloom,
And spare dimensions of one backward room?
Wherein he dines, if so ’tis fit to speak
