You weren't so far off but I knew you,
I instantly knew you were there!
On my Ancient and Modern I drew you
Between the first hymn and the prayer.
I'm glad that my eyes keen and quick are,
When there are such prospects to see.
You're looking straight up at the Vicar--
I wish you'd look over at me!
You've a hat that is gauzy and shady,
Your gown is a delicate grey--
So fair and so dainty a lady
Ne'er entered the Church till to-day!
Your chaperon quietly dozes.
Would I were a wizard, for you!
A wave of my wand, and with roses
Should suddenly blossom your pew
