"Their BOOTS have richly earned their fame;
Their SHOES have gained an envied name;
What matters mud, however thick,
When once your feet are shod by DICK,
13, CROSS CHEAPING."
PILOSAGINE.
The shades of night were falling fast,
When on the word his eyes he cast—
That word which struck him with amaze—
Couched in the adverts' meant to praise.
