Tartlets In Custardy
Blesséd fragrance, of the Nile,
Pent within this crystal phial
By the mistress, with a smile
That betters Cleopatra
Blesséd river, what a pong
Assails the nostril; what's gone wrong
By the Arno, with a song?
Some ménage à quatre!
Envoi
If your nose you hope to please
Try elsewhere when moved to sneeze
A kitchen full of empties
A pocket full of fluff
Enough!
