Beneath her window, and her name was like

The silvery pealing of a tinkling bell;

(Perhaps 'tis yours, fair reader,) "Clairinelle."

May sat beside her with a graver air,

Something more matronly controlled her mien;

Yet was she not a sighing "sentimentalist,"

But, like her cousin Cary, could be gay:

Two Valentines had come for these fair girls,

Which made the dimpled smiles show teeth like pearls

Pray, read those tender missives—here they are—
