The Home Of Misfortune, The Shelter Of C...
The home of misfortune , the shelter of crime , A madhouse , a hospital , and , in my time , A nursery first , then a school for the young , - A good meaning perverted , a great word unstrung . If the Graces were squared , they my length would complete ;
But yet , strange to say , I have only two feet ; And as they must have six , This appears like a fix ; The Let us result then is a lit number the difference which— ' twixt as you them will and see me ,
It at once—I am not going here to disclose , But take so many letters from me out of those Which That come were first it but , and used you I 'll could find that not live you ' an ve now hour got a power , While the rest of me shelter and comfort will give ; ,
And with both when combined any creature can live ( Unless that the creature a " person " should be ) Without thinking of me , Independent and free , And , if taxed , have a vote for the local M . P .
But my three final letters produce such effect , That from them , and from ignorance , drink , and neglect , I am liked but too well , — And yet , strange to tell , I enclose a sweet flower of fragrance divine .
The nethermost garments , a mother of swine , A Yo quadruped u shall noble what , it is . Lord Now Mayor be careful ' e ach , r To name all say the words , bojh the greater and , lesser guesse ; , For idleness , if you indulge it , will be The cause of your days being ended—in me .
