Low of stature, very fair,
With eyes of haztf-gray,
She wears a wealth of sunny hair
And smile as bright as day.
Her voice in converse seldom heard
Is sweet and soft and low;
And like the festive humming bird
Shes "here and there you know.
She has a certain beau to-day,
And vows she loves him dearly
Tomorrow She is not that way.
But knows the gentleman merely.
She likes to take one by surprise
With Il downright compliment,
And then with turned head, dowcast

Say she had nothing meant.
