THE INVASION. When France's fir9t Emperor plann'd the invasion Of Britain, and muster'd his troops at Boulogne, Nor fathers, nor sons needed any persuasion, rushed to defend their dear land and the throne. In after years also, when danger was near us, And Europe throughout was of warfare the scene, Our Volunteer ho ts made all enemies fear us: The nation stood forth in defence of its Quoen. So when Bishop first open'd his Geocbhy Stores, When stroDg opposition prevail'd in the trade, The customers flock'd to his depßt by scores, And left with delight at the purchases made. His prices were such that all classes would please, His goods were pronounced of the genuine sort, And all who have tasted his fine-flavor'd teas Declare they're the best that have enter'd this port. The motto says, Palmam gui meruit ferat ; Then Bishop's entitled to highest of praise. He keeps such a stock that no critic can jeer at, Which hastens his great reputat'on to raise. His fame is so great ttiat hi 3 shop is invaded By volunteer hosts, who his patrons have been, Who continue as such, and have others persuade<L To stick to* his cause as they would to their QueenNote the Address :— EMPIRE CITY TEA WAREHOUBB, Willis-street, next Empire Hotel.
