Puffed the Virginian or Havanna leaf;

And when the poet’s or the artist’s branch,

Drops no sustaining fruit, how sweet to pout

Consolatory whiffs—alas, too brief!

——:o:——

My Hookah.

What is it, that affords such joys

On Indian shores, and never cloys,

But makes that pretty, bubbling noise?

My Hookah.
