The Fortune Teller

A gypsy Maiden, strangely wise, with dusky
hair and midnight eyes, my future life uh-
veiled; she said she'd read the lines of
fate for many another trusting skate, and
never yet had failed. She was a maid Of
savage charms; great brazen rings were on
her arms, and she had strings of beads with
trinkets~ she was loaded down; the noisy col
ors of her gown recalled no widows weeds
She told me would live to be rich as Andy
or John d., my dreams would all come true;
I'd have a palace on the hill, and vassals
near to do my will, a yacht to sail the blue.
And as she told what blessings fine, what
great rewards and gifts were mine, in low
and dulcet tones, her ni1nble fingers, neer at
rest, got closer to my checkered vest, and
lifted seven bones. She touched me for my
neagre roll, that poor misguided, heather
soul, but still her victim smiles; she gave me
dreams for half day and took me with her
to Cathay and the enchanted isles Her CLAM
or caused me to forget little while the
strife and sweat the citys bricks and stones;
she took my toilWorn soul abroad, and she is
welcome to my wad still have seven
