English poem
The Picture
by W. B. Rands
This is her picture--Dolladine-- The beautifullest doll that ever was seen! Oh, what nosegays! Oh, what sashes! Oh, what beautiful eyes and lashes!
Oh, what a precious perfect pet! On each instep a pink rosette; Little blue shoes for her little blue tots; Elegant ribbons in bows and knots.
Her hair is powdered; her arms are straight, Only feel--she is quite a weight! Her legs are limp, though;--stand up, miss!-- What a beautiful buttoned-up mouth to kiss!
