30 HONI SOIT QUI MAL Y PENSE.
IT was my happy lot to meet Upon a late occasion, While seeking of the summer's heat Agreeable evasion, By visiting at a resort Of fashion where, no matter A maid whom there was none to court. And very few to flatter.
Her head had not the graceful poise Of Aphrodite's statue ; Her hair reminded you of boys ; Her nose was pointed at you. A Derby hat, the selfsame sort The fashionable male owes Money for, she used to sport As angels do their haloes.
She seldom walked
... in silk attire, But commonly in flannel ; Nor yet in oils did she aspire To figure on a panel ; Because she could not help but see She was not tall, nor slender ; Nor did she deem her curves to be Superlatively tender.
Some prudish dames did her abuse With censure fierce and scathing ; Because she, happening to lose Her stocking while in bathing ; Deemed such a loss of little note.
And simply tied the plagued Stocking around her little throat And reappeared barelegged.
I do not think that for the pelf Of eligible boobies, Or for the chance to deck herself With diamonds and rubies, Or for her standing in the books Of prim and proper ladies, Or for their disapproving looks, She cared a hoot from Hades.
