yearsFrom Seventeen to Ninety-nine.A special solace may they beIn days of second infancy.
The frenzied mother who observesThis volume in her offspring's hand,And trembles for the
darling's nerves,Must please to clearly understand,If baby suffers by and byThe Publisher's at
fault, not I!Pg x

and thriveThrough a successful life of crime,The Publisher would have you seeThat I am to
be thanked, not he!
