For some for pleasure smoke, and some for fame—

Fame, of our actions, universal spring,

For which we drink, eat, sleep, smoke—everything.

Smoking and Smokers. By W. A. Delamotte. 1845.


A Manilla Sonnet.

Luscious leaf of fragrant savour,

Mild cheroot of choicest flavour,

Wafting incense to the sky,

Like the gales of Araby,
