The Network Girl.
She wears a network waist. Her stockings are network, too: I look at her openwork sleeves and see Her soft arms gleaming through. When she raises her fluffy skirts A little way. ah, me! I see the dainty bits of white That peep through filigree. You say it Is rude of me To look through her network waist. Or to gaze below when she lifts her skirts, So dainty and eke so chaste? Nay. say not so! It were rude If T should neglect to see. For why is she wearing her network things If not to be seen by me? “New York Herald.”
