She Yet womanhood you reverenceA
So you professB
-
He With heart and soulC
-
She Of which fact this is evidenceA
To help Art study for some doleC
Of certain wretched shillings youD
Induce a woman virgin tooD
To strip and stand stark nakedE
-
He TrueD
-
She Nor feel you so degrade herF
-
He WhatG
Excuse the interruption clingsH
Half savage like around your hatI
-
She Ah do they please you Wild bird wingsH
Next season Paris prints assertJ
We must go feathered to the skirtJ
My modiste keeps on the alertJ
Owls hawks jays swallows most approveK
-
He Dare I speak plainlyL
-
She Oh I trustM
-
He Then Lady Blanche it less would moveK
In heart and soul of me disgustM
Did you strip off those spoils you wearN
And stand for thanks not shillings bareN
To help Art like my Model thereN
She well knew what absolved her praiseO
In me for God's surpassing goodP
Who granted to my reverent gazeO
A type of purest womanhoodP
You clothed with murder of his bestQ
Of harmless beings stand the testQ
What is it you knowR
-
She That you jestQ
