StQUtt TO THE (l A M B L I 11 Now come with me, I will show you, I will piiu you to another, Not n gambler, hut his. brother, For both labor in one calling. That of spreading Satan kingdom, And increasing his dominions. Hut this man that now I show you Is not sick, or weak or helpless. He is young nnd able-bodied Strong, ns any other j like him, Hut too lazy he lo work is Therrforo to Bomo other calling He devotes his mind nnd body Mind nnd body did I tell you? Mind but very little has he, Ami but little any other Who pursues thi shameful business, For he is a whiskey trader Selling whiskey for a living, Though he kills a thousand by il, If he only gets their money, He doth care but little for it. For he thinks himself a trader, Trading whiskey gin or brandy, Of all qualities and prices, Made of logwood and tobacco, With n little pepper. In it, Or some poison from the druggist These are put into some water And forthwith 'tis metamorphosed Into wine or gin, or bianily, Or It may lie old rye whiskey, Just according to its color, Though no rye was ever In it, Though no grapes were ever nigh it, It he says is choicest liquor Purest wine, and best of brandy. (Though he knows tis only rot-oct.) This he puts in different bottles, With a table in the corner, Or behind gome heavy enrtain With a pack of cards upon it, He, with heart, hard as a millstone, And a conscience, jst like rubber , Stands (o get his neighbors money ' For his nasty filthy whiskey For his wine made out of logwood (Though he ciiamtacne sometimes calls it, And again calls it Madeira,) His tobacco flavored brandy. There he stands from morn' till evening And from evening un'.ill midnight, Sidling to his neighbors whiskey Getting from his neighbors money, And himself the while persuadelh, That he has an honest calling, That the PEorLF. need ms whiskey, That he needs the people money Therefore both are much advantaged. He has money, they have whiskey, And this country is a free one, That lo slop him would be taking Liberty and rights of conscience, Rights of conscience, did I tell you? Conscjeuce I why the man has got none, He has drowned it in his whiskey, He has put it in his bottle, He with poisonous drugs ha killed it. True, n hundred prayer are uttertd (By the men who buy hi whiskey,) For themscivrs suit those around them, That God would to Hell condemn them, But the whiskey trader heed not For his heart is et on money, Conscience quieter, that money, Now he sees hi neighbor passing Wishes he would rail upon him, Wishes he would buy some whiskey Wonders if he has the money, Hates to sell it on credit, Wishes every one would drink it, Every one for cash would buy it, Though he knows 'twill be their ruin, . Ruin in both soul and body, Ruin in their heal.'h and morals, Utter ruin and forever. See the young men goin? thither Going to the whiskey trader, Thinking they are very thirsty, Thinking they must have some brandy, Some to drink to make them warmer, Or if warm to make them cooler, Or if sick to make them better, Or if well to make them merry Such the virtue r nr. tii r.v musk it. . , B it when swallowed, oh how sicknlng! Oh how changed I what shameful spewing, O what wallowing in the gutter. Whit foal language too they utter 1 But the trader now is pleasant, Very smiling is h to them And accommodating, very, Just because he wants theirmoney. Wants it all, the dimes and quarters. Enter they that house polluted, Enter they, that pest of countries Enter they that de:i of robbers, Robbers of their country moral, Of the peace of helples women, Go they t Hint pvipcr maker' Gn :hy to that breath polluter, Character i.isuan,i, I . j. Moral or Character of men destroyer, best a flection bU.llcr, our you'Ji corrupter I'n -; HT ' I .t, J-iv y!M dijjjer Orphan rrie and tear drepiscrt Aim house filler, sorrow maker Death disease, nnd sicklies vender, Satan minister and helper. Enter they the whiskey Iradcr', Gentlemen, he says, good evening, '. Will yon havo some wins or brandy ? i Or perhaps a little toddy, (i , With some oysters if your hungry. Then he mixes up a glussfull Of bis nasty filthy liquor With perhaps a little imgnr Or a little spice or lemon. Up thon lo hi counter go lliey But how dillcrcuMy they drink it One with greediness cngulph il At one swallow; but another That he may the more enjoy it Sips a little and a little, Sips, mil ill he has his cau full, While another slill mors careful Takes n straw and on the counter Sets his glass, and leaning by it, Like a lar.y idle loafer, Through the straw quite slowly suck it. Thu they drink the trader whiskey, Or whatever filthy mixture Ha may give them for their money Thus tliey drink eneh other ruin. I . Then they sit down by a table And a decK of cards they call for With tho cards they want inor brandy And the looser this must pay for. For so righteous are these tiplers, That they fear to play for money, Till at least they're playd for whiskey. On, till late at night, they set Ihere, Playing curds, and drinking whisxey, Drinking home made wine and brandy Till they feel themselves quite boozy Till they drlnK their poricet empty ' Till the trader ha their money, And they have the trader whisKey, But Ibeir money buy more whisxey , Which again the trader sells them. . Thus his day and'year he passes, Selling whisKey to his neighbors, ' Maicing every year more druntarda, ''' jMaxlng every year more orphan : ; icaia, aiiu WU WMU Buimn I Causing robbery and murder Causing crime throughout the country All the youth around enticing 1 From the path of peace and virtue, '. . i To Uie haunt of vice and ruin Till at last tho whisxey trader Having slain his tens of thousands Having done the worx of Satan Having in this loithsome traffic Grown as old as sin will let him ' He retire from his calling To lie down beside hit victim ' ' Vying too a greater drunkard Than the man who bought hi whiisey, Dying with his siiiB upon him, Dying with the wrath of Heaven, Hanging o'er him, burning fiercely, ' Having sold his soul for money Not one cent of which be carries j To that future world of sorrow , j Deepest sorrow and of sintering With it may be all his victim Ttuincd by this whisxey trader Gathering in rrowdj around him Not to drink his mm and brandy, But with all their fiendish malice To torment and curse him ever.
