Out on thee, cruel Parasol,

Of lace, the pearl, and satin;

And glinting like a fairy doll

With many a burnished patin;

Cool, charming as the dainty dame

Who twirls thy coromandel;

Thou flauntest proudly since thy name,

Like hers, can boast its handle!

The cynosure of wondering beaux,

I boast a soul above thee;
