TO A GLOSSY COAT.
Shine on, old coat, your duty's done. Your polished nap has had its day -, The maid I wore you for is won. In calm content be laid away. For why you shine full well I know, Gainst you she often loved to rest, Reflecting back love’s fervent glow. Her form was mirrored on my breast.
