English poem
Miss Legion
She is hotfoot after Cultyure, She pursues it with a club. She breathes a heavy atmosphere Of literary flub. No literary shrine so far But she is there to kneel; But-- Her favorite line of reading Is O. Meredith's "Lucille."
Of course she's up on pictures-- Passes for a connoisseur. On free days at the Institute You'll always notice her. She qualifies approval Of a Titian or Corot; But-- She throws a fit of rapture When she comes to Bouguereau.
And when you talk of music, She is Music's devotee. She will tell you that Beethoven Always makes her wish to pray; And "dear old Bach!" His very name She says, her ear enchants; But-- Her favorite piece is Weber's "Invitation to the Dance."
