How provoking of Pa! he will not let me stop
Just to run in and rummage some milliner's shop;
And my _début_ in Paris, I blush to think on it,
Must now, DOLL, be made in a hideous low bonnet.
But Paris, dear Paris!--oh, _there_ will be joy,
And romance, and high bonnets, and Madame Le Roi![2]

the impression of his foot is marked out on the pier at Calais, and a
pillar with an inscription raised opposite to the spot.
