Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEDFGHGIJJ| She watched me curiously with mocking eyes | A |
| Yet tenderly till once again her mirth | B |
| Prevailed with her and quick in feigned surprise | A |
| Thrusting me back Ah traitor '' she broke forth | C |
| 'Twas not for me then you were waiting there | D |
| Not me poor foolish me The Queen of Love | E |
| The woman of the booth She was your care | D |
| Monster to dare me thus And yet you prove | F |
| Your wit in vain for look you foolish boy | G |
| She cannot walk the streets like you and me | H |
| Or the town would be at her heels '' Convulsed with joy | G |
| At this new jest she laughed remorselessly | I |
| Till I was almost angry and inclined | J |
| To leave her there And then she changed her mind | J |
