• a pretty a day
    (and every fades)
    is here and away
    (but born are maids
    to flower an hour
    in all,all)

    o yes to flower
    until so blithe
    a doer a wooer
    some limber and lithe
    some very fine mower
    a tall;tall

    some jerry so very
    (and nellie and fan)
    some handsomest harry
    (and sally and nan
    they tremble and cower
    so pale:pale)

    for betty was born
    to never say nay
    but lucy could learn
    and lily could pray
    and fewer were shyer
    than doll. doll
