Certain Artists Bring Her Dolls and Drawings

Bring where our Beauty lies

A new modelled doll, or drawing,

With a friend’s or an enemy’s

Features, or maybe showing

Her features when a tress

Of dull red hair was flowing

Over some silken dress

Cut in the Turkish fashion,

Or it may be like a boy’s.

We have given the world our passion,

We have naught for death but toys.
