Had taken the odd gross from little Moses,
Seemed looking thro' green spectacles.
"Green faces!" so they all began to comment—
"Yes—opposite to Druggists' lighted shops,
But that's a flying color—never stops—
A bottle-green that's vanish'd in a moment.
Green! nothing of the sort occurs to mind,
Nothing at all to match the present piece;
Jack in the Green has nothing of the kind—
Green-grocers are not green—nor yet green geese!"
