In both appeared—yea, which had won the palm

In beauty's flower-show (without a bribe)

I cannot tell, but let the living form

But speak a word, and ev'ry doubt is gone.

No wonder then their faces well agree.

But still I gave him a reproving look,

At which he smiled, while in his arm he took

The portrait's twin, and bid me follow where

The well-dressed trout for our repast prepare.
