Artist.—
“From what I see and doth appear,
You, Sir, may be a stranger here;
And as you now employ your Art, I may some useful hints impart.
I am an Artist, would you see Art's finest works, pray come with me.
You may view all, if you are willing; The Exhibition costs a shilling;
And in this stream I would be drown'd,
Should you not think it worth a pound.
Nay, if your means the price supply,
Such as you chuse, why you may buy.”
