Though fashion plates were quite unknown,
Was ever beauty like arrsyed2
Enchantment's spell has never down
From dainty lace and rich brocade.
The danes. the maids, the gowns they wore,
We're taste and grace and beauty blent,
And hearts were warm unto the core
When James MoEroe was president.
The beaux, rare gentlemen. forsooth.
Wore wigs covnbed up in powdered puf,
And no one blushed to take. in truth
From silver box pinch OF snuff.
Sweet courtesy held high command.
And men we're peers to all intent,
The mark Of rank an honest hand,
When James Monroe was president. ~
And tallow nodded round wick
When burning seemed as diamonds bright,
They'd scarce have traded csndlestick
For twinkling incandescent light, t
The danes, the maids and gallants all.
Who long haze slept meath earthly tent,
The same whose presence graced the ball
When James Monroe was president.
All, long the years that intervene,
Yet laugh. ye scoffers, as ye may.
Still Purity's acknowledged queen,
And Courtesy is king today.
Hearts beat as warm today as then.
And charity's as kindly meant
As twas 'mong those. Gods nob!cmen,
When James Monroe was president
