In vain did the horrified H-nl-y say,

‘’Twas all a mistake’—‘she was misdirected;’

And point to a concert, over the way,

Where fiddlers and angels were expected.

In vain.—The Saint could see in his looks

(She civilly said) much tuneful lore;

So, at once, all opened their music-books,

And herself and her Cherubs set off at score.

All night duets, terzets, quartets,

Nay, long quintets, most dire to hear;
