Oh, wondrous figure, exquisitely stepp d, In thee who would not, should not be adept ? Oh Polka, Polka, wherefore art thou so ? I ve asked ten dandies, and the ten " don t know ! " How wide, how absolute must be thy reign, When ancient dames attempt the task in vain ; 12 INFATUATION.
When modern Shatterlys affect the beau, And feebly twirl the paralytic toe. Oblivious, wrapped in thy delirious trance, See girls, turned Bayaderes, complete the dance, With grace so witching and with art so true, ...Ellsler might pale with envy at the view, Cerito languish, Taglioni sigh O er nights of triumph passed forever by, The modest waltz, by Byron fitly sung, And coyly tripping from Anacreon s tongue, Yields to the Polka s more bewildering arts, That weave new meshes over female hearts. We want a poet can our clime afford One pure as Little, moral as my lord ? Oh, spared by satire, let the passions play, While music speaks what language cannot say ! I love to see, where Fashion holds her court, Such harmless freedom with such pleasant sport ; It shows a proper disregard of forms, The brain it softens and the bosom warms, And this great truth in striking light reveals, Where wit is absent, heads succumb to heels.
