THE SAVOYARD.
By E.B. Impey, Esq.
[The following ballad is founded on the melancholy fact of a Savoyard boy and his monkey having been found starved to death in St. James's Park during the night of a severe frost.]
Weary and wan from door to door
With faint and faltering tread,
In vain for shelter I implore,
And pine for want of bread.
Poor Jacko! thou art hungry too;
Thy dim and haggard eye
