 * In that summer of yore,
 * Atalanta did not
 * Vote my presence a bore,

Nor reply to my tenderest talk "She had heard all that nonsense before."


 * She'd the brooch I had bought
 * And the necklace and sash on,
 * And her heart, as I thought,
 * Was alive to my passion;

And she'd done up her hair in the style that the Empress had brought into fashion.
