Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CBCB DEDE FBFB ABAB EBEB| Methinks I see your mirror frame | A |
| Ornate with photographs of them | B |
| Place mine therein for all the same | A |
| I'll have my little laughs at them | B |
| - | |
| For girls may come and girls may go | C |
| I think I have the best of them | B |
| And yet this photograph I know | C |
| You'll toss among the rest of them | B |
| - | |
| I cannot even hope that you | D |
| Will put me in your locket dear | E |
| Nor costly frame will I look through | D |
| Nor bide in your breast pocket dear | E |
| - | |
| For none your heart monopolize | F |
| You favour such a nest of them | B |
| So I but hope your roving eyes | F |
| Seek mine among the rest of them | B |
| - | |
| For saucy sprite and noble dame | A |
| And many a dainty maid of them | B |
| Will greet me in your mirror frame | A |
| And share your kisses laid on them | B |
| - | |
| And yet sometimes I fancy dear | E |
| You hold me as the best of them | B |
| So I'm content if I appear | E |
| To night with all the rest of them | B |
