Fair Eve devised a walking suit
OF Jungle grasses, soft and crimpy
She thought il rather neat and cute,
ButAdam grunted, Rather skinny :
A cloak of palm leaves sought for miles,
She made, and came to be admired
But Adam said. The silly styles
You women wear just make me tired
She built herself little hat
OF lilies Eve was very cleverl,
And asked him what he thought OF that
And Adam blurted, well. | never !
So next she placed upon her head
A featheTed three-by y-four creation.
The little word that Adam said
Is barred from parlor conversation
Yet Eve refused to be..a dowd
And tied an autumn tinted sash on.
"I'll dress to please myself" she
vowed,
For what does Adam know of fash.
ionl
What use to seek applause from him?
He SCOTS and says cannot reason a..
Well then my law shall be my whim-
And that shall change with every
