CIII. SONNIT-2 MY NOZE.

[figure description] Page 365.[end figure description]

WICH I HEV BIN COLORIN FOR MANY YEERS.



Mammoth probossis! My troo mirror shows
Thou fill 'st, at last, my yearnin hart's desires;
In size, you 'll do—in color, Ætna's fires
Can not compare with thee, resplendent noze!
Meershawm invertid! Glowing as the morn,
How many nips—nips—faw! Say galons, quarts,
Did it take to raise them great, gigantic warts?
Them bloo karbunkles, that thy fiery sides adorn?
Magestic organ! e'en yoo kin be improved—
Arkimides wunst sed, that, with his strength,
A fulcrum, and a lever uv suffishent length,
The world, wich weighs a trifle, cood be moved.
Jes so! Give me unlimited supplies,
And, noze! I 'll double thee in color and in size.
