It seems as if her heart and soul were bent on doing right,

And when she sang she sang so sweet—Oh! it was out of sight.

The next I saw was Lyda M., with scarlet cheeks aglow;

She sings with voice most charming, a clear and sweet alto,

She's next the younger of them all, because she's just eighteen,

She captivates the heart of man—what a fairy little Queen!

Then last, not least, the little one, that is, Miss Kittie C.,

She just so busy when she sings she's like a honey bee.

Her eyes are clear as crystal, her locks are flowing gold,

She sings soprano quite as fine as any I have told.
