There's Johnny's boots, see how they're worn, And Polly's want a patch ; Young Billy tells me his are torn, And mine are no great catch. I wish some one would tell me where To go, good boots to get, Bad ones of all things I can't bear That won't keep out the wet. Just then a neighbour came to see How things were getting on, So Mrs. S. told Mrs. C. . How children's boots were gone Said Mrs. C. to HEMUS go, For that's where I got these; ■ In Queen-street, at the top you know, He'll make you boots to please. So Mrs. S. took her advice, -~ At HEMUS'did call, And found they were so very nice, That now she gets them all AT HEMUS' V STAR %* BOOT MART, Top of Queen-street. I
