My bodice like snow; The clover to sickle With others I go. Something pretty, e'er long Midst the troop he explores; The eager boy signs me To go within doors. I bashfully go,-- Who I am, he can't trace; He pinches my cheeks, And he looks in my face. The town girl now threatens You maidens with war; Her twofold charms pledges . Of victory are. 1803. ----- LOVER IN ALL SHAPES. |
