THE PROMOTION. For Mr. J. L. __ WHEN the d-v-l got notice old CHARON was dead, He wish’d for some blockhead to
row in his stead; For he fear’d one with int’lect
discov’ries might make, Of his tortures and racks,
’tother side of the lake; So for true native dulness and want of discernment, He sought the whole world, and
gave John the preferment. |
