TO MY DAUGHTER PHYLLIS~i893 Y dear, as you lie kicking there,I wonder who will find you fair,And rave at length aboutyour hair—(A downy fluff at present)And if your voice will ever thrillA lovers soul, or sweetly fillA music-room—I find it shrillAnd far from pleasant. You certainly have cunning toes,But ankles ! —surely, dearest, thoseFat, creasy things, which you disclose With freedom by any magic beSeedlings of that which charmeth meWhereer by some good luck I see Your mothers stocking. I pray that you may grow in grace,Thzt features may adorn your sense and beauty may keep paceWith one another 86
