A countess would pawsist last night,

In asking me about haw book.

She wished to know if aw admiawd

Eva, which quite confounded me;

And then haw ladyship inquiawed

Whethaw aw didn’t hate Legwee.

Bai Jove! Aw was completely flawed;

Aw wished myself, or haw, in Fwance;

And that’s the way a fellah’s bawed

By evewy gahl he asks to dance!
