With nought to do all day but woo—

O, had I but a fairy yacht!

To some sweet unfrequented spot—

If I but thought that hearts were true—

I soon would sail away with Dot!

I'd sail away, not minding what,

My friends approve, or foes pooh-pooh—

O, had I but a fairy yacht!

For name or fame care not a jot,

I'd leave behind no trace or clue—
