ROMANCE

Far by a sunlit, summer sea
She dwelt on love and faith and
hope
Her right name was Penelope,
But neighbors called her Penelope.
Fair as a violet was she,
That grows beside messy stone,
Or that wild-flower, anemone-
The farmers call it anemone.
She danced like down along the lea,
She danced like foam along the
shore.
4 daughter OF Terpsichore-
Whom hoi polloi call Terpsichore.
Alas, One day she went to see
A circus-heard the raucous dope
OF that accurst calliope
Which most folk call the calliope!
That very night this maid did flee
With the Big Show to dance and
loaf;
Sure. such a sad catastrophe
Might well be called catastrophe!
Now as a modern trovatore
She dances to the calliope;
o hapeless child of Terpscichore,
o airy. fairy Penelope!
