To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Not a paltry fifty Even didst thou get, — Nothing that could lift a Fellow out of debt.
36 TO A MAsYILA LOTTERY TICKET.
Oh ! the chicks I numbered, Hatching one by one, Visions unencumbered By a shroff or dun.
Oh ! the airy buildings That I built in Spain, Now the merry gilding 's Off the bread again.
Ticket ! when thy figure Lured me on to buy.
Was there e'er a bigger Fool on earth than I ?
Yet thy number pleased me.
Good resolves did melt.
And the shopman squeezed me, Knowing how I felt.
As s...ome proud aristo.
Owning acres fair, With a wish which is to Have a son and heir — Chews with muttered curses His moustache's curl When the trembling nurses Tell him, "It's a girl;"— TO A MANILA LOTTERY TICKET. 37 As some reckless urchin, Heedless of his legs, Climbs a tree, there searchin' Nests, to steal the eggs.
Finds one— with elation Doth his fist insert, Till investigation Shows but leaves and dirt ;— As a diver seekin' In the galleon's hold.
Finds a box (of teak) in Which he think's there 's gold.
