Mrs. N. Gray Bartlett - A Girl I Know, Plate 7 (Photogravure), 1894.
.
My love is fair when she is drest
In glittering silks, it is confest:
But when in fluttering dimity
Her graces are revealed to me,
I know not how to love her best.
Howe’er it be. her
hand i prest
My rapture, oh
She surely guessed:
Her azure eyes beamed
mistily.
My love is fair.
Ring joy bells Ring
from East to West.
My love loves me,
and all the rest
Is but to me as
vanity.
Whether in silk or
dimity
She goes, I know that
I am blest.
My love is fair.
