A
-
She lay as if at playB
Her life had leaped awayB
Intending to returnC
But not so soonD
-
Her merry Arms half droptE
As if for lull of sportE
An instant had forgotE
The Trick to startE
-
Her dancing Eyes ajarF
As if their Owner wereG
Still sparkling throughH
For fun at youH
-
Her Morning at the doorI
Devising I am sureJ
To force her sleepK
So light so deepK
