A
-
I am ashamed I hideB
What right have I to be a BrideB
So late a Dowerless GirlC
Nowhere to hide my dazzled FaceD
No one to teach me that new GraceD
Nor introduce my SoulE
-
Me to adorn How tellF
Trinket to make Me beautifulG
Fabrics of CashmereH
Never a Gown of Dun moreI
Raiment instead of PompadourI
For Me My soul to wearJ
-
Fingers to frame my Round HairJ
Oval as Feudal Ladies woreI
Far Fashions FairJ
Skill to hold my Brow like an EarlC
Plead like a WhippoorwillC
Prove like a PearlC
Then for CharacterK
Fashion My Spirit quaint whiteL
Quick like a LiquorK
Gay like LightL
Bring Me my best PrideB
No more ashamedM
No more to hideB
Meek let it be too proud for PrideB
Baptized this Day a BrideB
