TO THE TERRESTRIAL GLOBE. BY A MISERABLE WRETCH. Roll on, thou ball, roll on ! Through pathless realms of space 801 l on! What, though I'm in a sorry case ? What, though I cannot meet my bills ? What, though I suffer toothache's ills ? What, though 1 swallow countless pills ? Never you mind J Roll on J Roll on, thou ball, roll ou! Through seas of inky "ir Roll on j It's true I've got no shirts to wear;' It's true my butcher's bill is due ; It's true my prospects all look blue—*■ But don't let that unsettle you 1 Never you mind! Roll on! [lt rolls on."]
