ORIGINAL POETRY. 
INJURED INNOCENCE 
OR, 
A CAT SUSPECTED! 
BY THE AUTHOR OF * THE MUMMY.” 
« Vous voyez qu’en ce fait la plus forte apparence 
Peut jetter dans esprit une fausse créance : 
De cet example-ci ressouvenez-vous bien, 
Et quand vous verrez tout, ne croyez jamais rien !”’ 
Tue night was dark, the wind was high, 
And Romeo had no hope of rest ; 
Though fell destruction hover’d nigh, 
And thunder rattled through the sky, 
The thirst of vengeance fix’d his eye, 
Firm was his Cattish breast ! 
Gigantic thoughts his soul inspired, 
He burnt to clear his injured name ; 
For WiL.1am’s wicked tongue aspired 
(By Envy, Hatred, Malice, fired, 
And Calumny, that fiend untired, ) 
To hurt his well-earn’d fame!
