The curling irons in his hand Almost grew quick enough to speak. The razor was a magic wand That understood the softest cheek. Yet with no pride his heart was moved ; He was so modest in his ways ! His daily task was all he loved. And now and then a little praise. An equal care he would bestow On problems simple or complex ; And nobody had seen him show A preference for either sex. How came it then one summer day, Coiffing the daughter of the King, He lengthened out the least delay And loitered... in his hairdressing ? The Princess was a pretty child, Thirteen years old, or thereabout. She was as joyous and as wild As spring flowers when the sun is out. "The Coiffine" Au8f\, EY BEAt^OSLEr. THE BALLAD OF A BARBER 53 Her gold hair fell down to her feet And hung about her pretty eyes; She was as lyrical and sweet As one of Schubert's melodies. Three times the barber curled a lock, And thrice he straightened it again ; And twice the irons scorched her frock. And twice he stumbled in her train.
