Remark:
--'Tis true he was but of humble origin -- But his taste for art was at an early age developed -- When scarcely six years old he produced this masterpeice -- His proud and happy parent gave him a sitting -- With this result! -- Later on he studied from nature -- And soon became a rising artist -- Then he painted the portrait of the rich and influential mayor of Slocum Podger -- And was very properly elected president of the Royal Academy. 'Tis thus that genius is rewarded.
