BUBBLE AND SQUEAK.

Bards, in remotest ages born
E’er grandsire Jove his beard had shorn,
Taught by the Muse, whene’er they chose,
To Heav'n were wont to soar like crows;
But they have left us no memorial
To prove their flights were flights corporeal:
Hence we the volant part suspect
To have been Nous, or Intellect,
While body snug on earth kept house
After his own inventions, Nous,
Ere his material comrade miss'd him,
Scamper'd above the solar system :
Heav'n's King no sooner sent a summons
To his celestial Lords and Commons,
