Actæon tumbled in a trice
That he had got himself in Dutch,
But thought if quite polite and nice
She would not mind the thing so much.
So the poor fool in this fond hope
Said, “Tell me, did you use Pear’s Soap?”
Diana, vexed to hear the gag,
Forthwith made Actæon a stag.
The Moral is, if you should chance
Upon a lady in the nude,
