You promised to paint me a picture	A
Dear Mat	B
And I was to pay you in rhyme	C
Although I am loth to inflict your	D
Most easy of consciences I'm	C
Of opinion that fibbing is awful	E
And breaking a contract unlawful	E
Indictable too as a crime	C
A slight and all that	B
	-
If Lady Unbountiful any	F
Of that	B
By mortals called pity has part	G
In your obdurate soul if a penny	F
You care for the health of my heart	G
By performing your undertaking	H
You'll succor that organ from breaking	H
And spare it for some new smart	G
As puss does a rat	B
	-
Do you think it is very becoming	H
Dear Mat	B
To deny me my rights evermore	D
And bless you if I begin summing	H
Your sins they will make a long score	D
You never were generous madam	I
If you had been Eve and I Adam	I
You'd have given me naught but the core	D
And little of that	B
	-
Had I been content with a Titian	J
A cat	B
By Landseer a meadow by Claude	K
No doubt I'd have had your permission	J
To take it by purchase abroad	K
But why should I sail o'er the ocean	J
For Landseers and Claudes I've a notion	J
All's bad that the critics belaud	K
I wanted a Mat	K
	-
Presumption's a sin and I suffer	A
For that	K
But still you did say that sometime	C
If I'd pay you enough here's enougher	A
That's more than enough of rhym	C
You'd paint me a picture I pay you	L
Hereby in advance and I pray you	L
Condone while you can your crime	C
And send me a Mat	K
	-
But if you don't do it I warn you	L
Dear Mat	K
I'll raise such a clamor and cry	A
On Parnassus the Muses will scorn you	L
As mocker of poets and fly	A
With bitter complaints to Apollo	M
'Her spirit is proud her heart hollow	M
Her beauty' they'll hardly deny	A
On second thought that	K
