229. "_'Tis Twopence now," &c._--Can any of your correspondents tell me
where the following lines are to be found?--
"At length in an unearthly tone I heard these accents drop,
'Sarvice is done, 'tis tuppence now for them as wants to stop.'"
I met with them in a newspaper (I think the _Morning Herald_) between
twenty and thirty years ago, but I believe they have been transferred to
that sheet from the pages of some periodical. The lines above given are
the concluding lines of the piece; the preceding lines were devoted to
the description of the dying away of the tones of the organ, and the
musings of the poet amongst the tombs in Westminster Abbey.
