Human origin may to the ape be referred,
Then we are now turning, I boldly declare,
To monkeys again. Pray look at the air
Of that monkey the organ-man carries about.
Gaze but a short moment and you will find out
When standing, his back just describes the outline
Of that fashionable female, in garments so fine.
Does not this resemblance, oh, tell me, I pray,
’Twixt apes and the fashionable dames of to-day,
Suggest to your mind the identical question,
