LISETTE.
WE worshiped each other,
Both I and Lisette:
She was French—a grisette.
No sister, nor brother
Had we not another
Claimed me or Lisette.

We grew up together,
Both I and Lisette—
She was fair, this grisette.
Thro' clear, and dark weather
We loved on together,
Myself and Lisette.

My age five-and-twenty,
And a score for Lisette,
She sighs with regret.
