Louisa. on the sun-kissed sands.
Arrayed in blue and white.
IN easy. graceful posture stands,
A vision of delight
All eyes are turned on one so fair,
And cameras snap free
She seems 10 neither know nor care,
AS though alone were she.
She does not know that zephyrs fiirt
And fiaunt her tresses fine;
She does not know her braided skirt
Displays her curves divine;
She does not know that standing SO
Her charms will best disclose
That Is. you know. she does not know
That others know she knows.
