The city girl. "They've no amusements there.

There's nothing to divert the eyes. Their hands

They do not stain with henna, setting off

A rounded arm. Rich costumes they wear not,

They are not coifed with kerchiefs of foulard

With flowers brocaded. Neither have they veils

Nor handkerchiefs of silk and broidered gold.
