He asked me if I’d walk a measure,
(When he came it was nearly midnight)—
I said—“With a great deal of pleasure,”
For he danced like a perfect delight.
So in waltzing and polking we sported,
Till supper sent forth its perfume,
And I went down to table, escorted
By “the handsomest man in the room”—
Yes, I went down to table, escorted
By “the handsomest man in the room.”
