For still I'll dance it, prance it, dance it,
Flaring away with Kit! II _Kit._ There's frollicking Kate, and rollicking Bet, And slammerkin Sall so tall, And leary-eyed Poll, and blue-eyed Moll-- Blow me, I love them all! Christopher--platonically, Hadelgitha! But Winny, not Jenny, nor Sue, Shall wean this heart from thee-- So thus I'll trip it, lip it, trip it, Trip it with Hadelgitha! IV _Kit._ The morning may dawn as sure as you're born, _Ade._ Will find us dancing alone _Kit._ I'll get a hack, be off in a crack, [3] _Ade._ An elegant Darby and Joan! How'll the vulgarians stare As they see you sportingly! _Both._For none can splash it, dash it, splash it, _Crissy Addy_ little you and I. [1: clothes] [2: horses] [3: instant] |
