Beneath the deep veranda's shadeA
When bats begin to flyB
I sit me down and watch alasC
Another evening dieB
Blood red behind the sere ferashD
She rises through the hazeE
Sainted Diana can that beF
The Moon of Other DaysE
-
Ah shade of little Kitty SmithG
Sweet Saint of KensingtonH
Say was it ever thus at HomeI
The Moon of August shoneJ
When arm in arm we wandered longK
Through Putney's evening hazeE
And Hammersmith was Heaven beneathL
The moon of Other DaysE
-
But Wandle's stream is Sutlej nowM
And Putney's evening hazeE
The dust that half a hundered kineM
Before my window raiseE
Unkempt unclean athwart the mistN
The seething city loomsO
In place of Putney's golden gorseO
The sickly babul bloomsO
-
Glare down old Hecate through the dustP
And bid the pie dog yellQ
Draw from the drain its typhoid termR
From each bazaar its smellQ
Yea suck the fever from the tankS
And sap my strength therewithL
Thank Heaven you show a smiling faceO
To little Kitty SmithL
