Mrs. Smith by her neat fireside was sitting, • One Saturday, quite agitated; And, if I remember it right, was knitting, And thus to herself cogitated. 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, Hjb'll make you boots to please. 1 So Mrs; S. took her advice, -' "■ .'"■'' V :A s At HEMUS' did call, .SOUQi i And found they were so very nice, That now she gets them all j.
