SHE was the @3premiere danseuse@1 of the ballet, And she tripped the light fantastic like a fay; She was so sweet and cunning, And withal so very stunning, That I was bound to meet her right away. I went behind the scenes after the play, And imagine my surprise as well you may: This maid so sweet and cunning, And withal so very stunning, I'll swear that she was forty if a day. |
