SIR MORGAN O'DOHERTY, BART. TO OLIVER YORKE, ESQ.

[DEAR YORKE, I hope these Sonnets are in time; though, perhaps, if you publish them, they will, through some strange mistake, involve us both in the same charge of treason as that which is now withering the "bloody Bradshaw, and rebel-ruffian Roby." All I mean to say in them is, that I do not think Prince Albert will be wrong in trying to make a court to his own taste; which, I suppose, will be in some part his right to do. Observe, I offer no hint that there is any thing in these subjoined Sonnets which can have the slightest application to the ladies and gentlemen at present so gracefully and decorously composing the court-circle. It would be lamentable to fall under the accusasion of disloyalty from the distinguished and disinterested men of the Tail, who, it must be admitted, ought to be excellent judges of that commodity. M. O'Ď.]

Yours, &c.

TWO SONNETS MATRIMONIAL,

ONE MOST RESPECTFULLY ADDRESSED TO QUEEN VICTORIA,

AND THE OTHER

PRESSED MOST ENERGETICALLY ON PRINCE ALBERT OF SAXE-COBURG-GOTHA.

I.

ENDS the year 39- the last to end

With fair Victoria's maiden reign; the rest
Our now "fair vestal, throned in the west,"
Has vowed in matrimonial joys to spend.
May every bliss the youthful pair attend,
In mutual happiness supremely blest!
May Windsor seem a turtle's loving nest,
Where billing will with cooing ever blend
And this day twelvemonth may it be our lot
With joyful shout o'er England's hills and dales,

And gratulations over bowl and pot,

To tell that happiest of all happy tales,

That (as God sends the present) we have got
A Princess-Royal, or a Prince of Wales.
