9hs stood on the cool pixSzs
As the shades Of evening fell
And gazed on the lovely maiden,
Entranccd by her beauty's SPELL
rhe balmy evening sephyrs
Played with each amber trcss,
And her azure eyes were swimming
In sea OF tenderness.
Her lips. just slightly parted.
Were tInged with the coral's dame.
And thought that her cheeks bright bushes
The hue OF the rose would shame.
While gazing in admiration
On the rare and radiant lass,
thought only sweetest music
Through those coral lips could pass.
But sudden change came DER her,
Gone was the smile SO bland,
And she smote in sudden anger
The back OF her lily hand.
And she cried. Hal hal I've got you'll
You'll trouble my peace no more.
You're the same darned old musquito
That tried to mash before"
