Who scraped, and sawed, and fingered well,

Until the sweet and stirring air

Would rouse the feet of dullest there.

Like people in the spring of life,

Of joys and countless blessings rife,

Who yield themselves to Pleasure's hand—

So danced that night the Brownie Band.

First one would take his place to show

The special step for heel or toe,

Just how to edge about with care,
