It may be you've seen her eyes	A
Dark and deep like midnight skies	A
You mayhap have seen them flash	B
Underneath the drooping lash	B
And been dazzled by the light	C
Of those orbs so dark and bright	C
But have you seen her foot	D
In its little gaiter boot	E
	-
	-
You have noticed maybe how	F
The lily spreads from chin to brow	F
You have thought her cheek more fair	G
Than if roses lingered there	G
Roses would seem out of place	H
On her pale patrician face	H
But again I question you	I
Have you seen her tiny shoe	I
	-
	-
You have thought her mouth no doubt	J
Like a blush rose half blown out	J
Small and sweet withal beside	K
Touched with scorn and curved with pride	K
Innate pride not meant to chill	L
You have seen it there and still	L
Answer one more question pray	M
Have you seen her boot I say	M
	-
	-
Such a tiny tiny thing	N
Is that foot of which I sing	N
No would hide it so	O
It could not be found I know	O
No must stand aside	K
All too long and large and wide	K
No	O
must	P
be the boot	E
For this maiden's little foot	D
	-
	-
You may envy sir the clerk	Q
In the shoe store hard at work	Q
Who tries the gaiter boot	E
On this cunning little foot	D
On his knee supporting it	R
Saying 'It's a perfect fit '	-
Buttoning on the No	O
Looking sorry when it's done	S
	-
	-
You have seen her slight and neat	T
As she tripped along the street	T
You have	U
heard	V
the pit pat fall	W
Of that foot so very small	W
That she's fair and pure and good	X
Bright and sweet is understood	X
But have you	I
seen	Y
that foot	D
In its dainty gaiter boot	E
