FLIRTING, by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES Poet Analysis First Line: Should her flirting prove a danger Last Line: That's the stuff to stop her treason. Alternate Author Name(s): Davies, W. H. Subject(s): Flirtation | ||||||||
Should her flirting prove a danger, What's the proper thing to change her; Shall I, marching up and down, Stamp and tremble, sulk and frown? Since no woman will obey, Bid her go, and then she'll stay. When a woman's lost to reason, That's the stuff to stop her treason. Sing a song of 'Flirt, my Pretty, Flirt and flit, I need no pity; Though you mend my shirt, or never Why should I be pledged to either!' Sing a song of 'Heigh, Heigh Ho, What care I what Women do!' When a woman's lost to reason, That's the stuff to stop her treason. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...VENTRILOQUISM by JOHN FREDERICK NIMS SNAP CHAT: MARRAKECH by TIMOTHY LIU THE LADY'S 'YES' by ELIZABETH BARRETT BROWNING THE FLIRT by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES A BIRD'S ANGER by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES |
