We stood one night on Beacon street,
Before her famty mansion,
While In my heart the throbs oflove
Were struggling for expansions
We had Just len the theatre,
Had heard II Trovaiore."
And, on the door step, talked about
The music and the story.
She raved about the wondrous voice
OfSlgnor Campanlni;
She praised his acting and his face,
While stood like a ninny.
WANTED to-but why explain7
Il alfsuspect she knew e.
Ihemmed and twisted like q fool
And hadn't pluck TO do Il.
Iwaited long for some excuse,
My stupid brain perplexing,
And then at length silence fell,
so awkward and so vexing;
But suddenly she frightened up,
This ioveliest OF misses
son, by theway, did you observe
How gracefully he kisses7"
