O how shall I write a love ditty	A
To my Alice on Valentine's day	B
How win the affection or pity	A
Of a being so lively and gay	B
For I'm an unpicturesque creature	C
Fond of pipes and port wine and a doze	D
Without a respectable feature	C
With a squint and a very queer nose	D
	-
But she is a being seraphic	B
Full of fun full of frolic and mirth	E
Who can talk in a manner most graphic	B
Every possible language on earth	E
When she's roaming in regions Italic	B
You would think her a fair Florentine	F
She speaks German like Schiller and Gallic	B
Better far than Rousseau or Racine	F
	-
She sings sweeter far than a cymbal	G
A sound which I never have heard	H
She plays and her fingers most nimble	G
Make music more soft than a bird	H
She speaks 'tis like melody stealing	B
O'er the Mediterranean sea	A
She smiles I am instantly kneeling	B
On each gouty and corpulent knee	A
	-
'Tis night the pale moon shines in heaven	I
Where else it should shine I don't know	J
And like fire flies the Pleiades seven	I
Are winking at mortals below	J
Let them wink if they like it for ever	C
My heart they will ne'er lead astray	B
Nor the soft silken memories sever	C
Which bind me to Alice De Grey	B
	-
If I roam thro' the dim Coliseum	K
Her fairy form follows me there	L
If I list to the solemn Te Deum	K
Her voice seems to join in the prayer	L
Sweet spirit I seem to remember	C
O would she were near me to hum it	M
As I heard her in sunny September	C
On the Rigi's a rial summit	N
	-
O Alice where art thou No answer	C
Comes to cheer my disconsolate heart	O
Perhaps she has married a lancer	C
Or a bishop or baronet smart	O
Perhaps as the Belle of the ball room	K
She is dancing nor thinking of me	K
Or riding in front of a small groom	K
Or tossed in a tempest at sea	K
	-
Or listening to sweet Donizetti	K
In Venice or Rome or La Scala	P
Or walking alone on a jetty	K
Or buttering bread in a parlour	C
Perhaps at our next merry meeting	B
She will find me dull married and gray	B
So I'll send her this juvenile greeting	B
On the Eve of St Valentine's day	B
