Sunk in despair
princess au pair
let down her hair
suitors beware
prince called in vain
doves cried in pain
the purplest train
washed out by rain
sit by her sill
wish at her well
walk o’er yon hill
say “Hi, I’m Gill”
“Hi Gill, I’m Nell”
Climb to my bell
mount with a yell
“Oh, no!” he fell.
long time to wait
yearning to sate
getting so late
stuck here by fate.
