Large the domain, but all within combine To correspond with the dlshonour'd sign ; And all around dilapidates ; you call — But none replies — ^^ey 're inattentive all : At length a ruin'd stable holds your steed. While you through laige and dirty rooms proceed. Spacious and cold ; a proof they once had been In hcmour, — ^now magnificently mean ; Till in some small hidf-fumish'd room you rest, Whose dying fire denotes it had a guest. In those you pass'd, where fbrmer splendour reign'd. You saw t...he carpets torn, the paper stain'd ; Squares of discordant glass in windows fix'd. And paper oil'd in many a space betwixt ; A soil'd and broken sconce, a mirror crack'd. With table underprop'd, and chairs new back'd ; A marble dde-slab with ten thousand stains. And all an ancient Tavern's poor remains. With much entreaty, they your food prepare, And acid wine afford, with meagre fare ; Heartless you sup ; and when a doxen times You've read the fractured window's senseless rhymes. Have been assured that Phcebe Green was fair, And Peter Jackson took his supper there ; You reach a chilling chamber, where you dread Damps, hot or oold, fh>m a tremendous bed ; Late eomes your sleep, and you are waken'd soon By rustling tatters of the old festoon.
