Excerpt from A Canuck Down South
T. G. Roddick, Esq., M.P. M.D.C.M. L.L.D., &c.
My friend, I set it down with pride,
"My Friend," without whom I had died,
You, one of Nature's tireless police,
Who sent me forth, the Golden Fleece
Of health to find, will find herein
How I that priceless boon did win.
And, as my humble work you read
With patience (patients are your meed)
Before you reach the end, you may
Regret you bade me baste away.
If not, and you are glad to find
My health more robust than my mind,
And if the volume pleases you,
Take it - it is not half your due.
A. W.
