They sonnets pen to golden hair,
Which ~all delight to con ;

But that dear woman give to me
Who sews my buttons on!
I once would muse before the fire,
My trousers held by bits of wire ;
I know not why"lI donTt inquire"
~Lhese I was forced to aon ;
But lite has now no sad regtet,
I bless my little useful pet,
The darlingest I ever met,
Who sews my buttons on!
Those littie hands so small and white,
So true and nimble, to my sight,
Are evermore a pure delight, ©
A joy to dwell upon! " b
The way they mend a huttonhole !
And how the needle they control !
I love the girl with all my soul
Who sews my butten on!
The useful and the sweet are mine,
All folded in-those hands divine!
What need that I shoald now repine?
A garment whole I don!
So let the poets pen their rhyme,
And praise the girls of every clime,
I her extol whoall the time
Doth sew my buttons on!
