A man is a weathercock, with his legs and arms indicating direction and the center spire going through his torso., Text: The weather-cock that turns it face / With ever wind that blows, / An emblem of a class of men / As uncertain as the drifiting snows; / Although his points he argues well, / And promises so very fair, / Yet like the sprightly Paddy's flea, / You'lt always find he isn't there. / I've brought this fact to your attention, / To show you are of the class I mention., Provenance: McAllister, John A. (John Allister), 1822-1896, collector.
