HE god of gastl'onomics is a god of rarest kind, And full often to his worship is my appetite inclined; Yet I'd fix his shrine forever, could I only have my way, In Thorndike and Hix's market, down in RocIdand by the bay. Should you chance to be in Rockland and you want to see the man, Who has pushed this growing business, from the time that it began, Call out the senior member and if you want to talm a drive He'll pull the lines on "Nelson;" you'll be glad that you're alive. He'S a hustling business 11lember and he bears all honol'oo name; He not only teaches bus iness but exemplifies the same, And thus proves the ancient adage, "Would you make your lives sub-LIME, Don't rely on Rocldand quarries; keep a hustling all the time."
