1. He.
Oh yes! I know the sort of man!
A not entirely vacant eye:
A ready smile, a kind of style;
A forehead adequately high:
Curls more or less Olympian.
A not entirely vacant eye:
A ready smile, a kind of style;
A forehead adequately high:
Curls more or less Olympian.
A fund of common things to say,
A list of common actions done:
A taste for tea, a poll degree,
A mild delight in harmless fun:
In short, a rather taking way.

The type is common: wherefore tarry
To paint what all must know so well?
He's rather tall, his feet are small:
He's thoroughly conventional:
A man who moves in common grooves,
And never startles you at all:
Or, all in one sad phrase to tell,
The sort of man that women marry.
