Madonna Mia. Old man, God bless you, does your pipe taste sweetly? A beauty, by my soul! A ruddy flower-pot, rimmed with gold so neatly, What ask you for the bowl? O sir, that bowl for worlds I would not part with; A brave man gave it me, Who won it-now what think you of a bashaw? At Belgrade's victory.— filed under Occupations-Tobacconists
