Doris, tell me truly,

Dol plea unduly,
Must | hopeless be?
| Though she sees me kneeling,
Hears my wild appealing,
| Not one spark of feeling
| Does she show for me.)
Doris, men aud fashion
still may come and 60,
| My undyiug passion
| Shall forever flow.

| The ivy interlacing-
| Now her feet are pacing
The terrace to and fro,)
Were the globe between US

Though immori al Venus
Plead with me to stay
(Surely this Grafton
Will win her admiration
0 strange infatuation!
She coldly turns away
Doris, l will wonder
Signing evermore
To the gates up yonder
| On the immortal Shore
(ThiS extravaganza
She'll not deign to answer;
Still another stanZa

And her scornIul gazing
All my fancy phraSlng
PleaSes not her earl

Fine enough for you,
