Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFGFHI| We shall be friends How friends You must know me first | A |
| What Like the Pont Neuf Should you wish it Well | B |
| None ever yet repented it who durst | A |
| Oh you shall know me as I dare not tell | B |
| You said I was not pretty 'Tis the paint | C |
| That ruins the complexion and the hours | D |
| Spent at the footlights These would rob a saint | C |
| Much more a sinner of her natural powers | D |
| Voil la casse du m tier Then this scar | E |
| Some praise it as a beauty They are fools | F |
| At best it but an honour is of war | G |
| And beauty is not measured by foot rules | F |
| So you forgive it me what need we care | H |
| Fair faces are but signs of things more fair '' | I |
