“Well”, she said, as she fiddled and fussed
With her petticoats. “Likely, I trust,
You’ll be wanting a root.
So, get out of that suit,
And get on with it then, if you must!”

Petty concerns
An imprudent young girl from Connecticut,
Went out in nought but a petticoat.
Passers-by gawked;
Gossips pointed and talked
About hussies and breaches of etiquette.
