Since it lacks the rhyming jingle
Most considered tlie attribute

Yet hopes it will not be less welcome —
Less welcome to kind friends and patrons—
I-«8s welcome to good worthy peo|>lc
Who may aid him, and assist him, •

Of this modest little volume,
Unpretentious — unpretending.
Perhaps some songs he will put in it
Like " The Girl 1 hft behind me,"
" Whisper softly— Mother's dying,"
, " Don't be angry with me, Darling,^ .
Or •*From Greenland's Icy Mounuins,
By way of sauce, or scent, or flavor,
To please the taste— and help digcslioa

housc near the roadside, but Mrs. Chew, a rather thin-'
faced w^man, with a long nose, a wide mouth,
and Itfge and long teeth, as if to vindicate
her right to such a queer name, chose to
refiiae to take one of Pat's books ; she would
not give him a chew of " terfiacker "for
one, so Pat feeling quite chewed up leA with
a mournful expression on his sud counlten-
ance, and took his departure for awhitcfranoe
house near the road, the home of a Mrs. Grit-
ftths. Here another sad and disheartening
/ diiappointment awaited him. She did not exactly pM*
^- poverty as.an excuse for refusing to buy ene^lr- i^^^

hb mmdwhen he left her and "mournfolly
