And wore unrivalled shoes,

The last sweet monoy liable
Of her romantic name;
Aim every Sunday evening,
Shp combed her goldenliair,
And at the window pensively,
Sat "sighing to the air."" '

A tall and handsome man was he,
The reigning village beau,
That made his bow one evening
To Polly Dolly Low.
He took a chair and sidlpd up,
A-,d said, "I guess as how
Yon think, Miss Polly Adeline,
