AIR IV.

[KEEP your distance, and pray do not dare]

KEEP your distance, and pray do not dare
To touch me with your paws of a Bear;
In temper you're mulish,
In feature you're foolish;
From your reading I nought can discover—
With another guess lass,
Perhaps you may pass—
I'll ne'er have a book for a lover.
