Miss Porter despises all froth,

Miss Scales they’ll make wait, I am thinking;

Miss Meekly is apt to be wroth,

Miss Lofty to meanness is sinking;

Miss Seymore’s as blind as a bat,

Miss Last at a party is first;

Miss Brindle dislikes a striped cat,

And Miss Waters has always a thirst!

Miss Knight is now changed into Day,

Miss Day wants to marry a Knight;
