She owned she'd read the classics through
And dotted on Bwinburne and shelly,
Was fond Of Lamb, and Bacon, too,
And quoted Keats while making Jelly;
Her buns caught sugared sweets from Pope,
Her pudding sauce was spieed with Bailey;
In dusty crypts her mind would gropc,
From nusty Cover 10 prim old Paley.

Then Pickwick soothed her. and the Weilefs
She always had a laughing flt
At Chauocr and those horrid spoilers;
The "Over souf' by heart she knew,
And dreamed all day Of Shakespeare ssonnets
From Ruskns critlques caught her cue,
when painting tiles and trimming bonnets
DE Muszet, with his pensiye strain,
And Helne, made her heart grow mellow;
Sad Petrarch only gave her pain,
She wept each day DER "Consuelo;
