Stranger in Liverpool;

OR,

AN HISTORICAL AND DESCRIPTIVE VIEW

OF THE

TOWN OF LIVERPOOL

AND ITS ENVIRONS.

Full are thy cities with the sons of Art;
And Trade and Joy, in every busy street,
Mingling are heard; e'en Drudgery himself,
As at the car he sweats, or, dusty, hews
The palace stone, looks gay. Thy crowded ports,
Where rising masts an endless prospect yield,
With labour burn, and echo to the shouts
Of hurried sailor, as he, hearty, waves
His last adieu, and, loosening every sheet,
Resigns the spreading vessel to the wind.

THOMSON.

THE THIRD EDITION,

WITH CORRECTIONS AND ADDITIONS.

PRINTED BY THOS. KAYE,
