Verso, printed, center: "ANY BAR  / Though, if you ask her name, she says ELISE,  / Being plain ELIZABETH. e /en letit pass,  / And own that, if her asprales tote their ease  / She ever makes a point, in washing glass,  / Handling the engine, turning taps for tots,  / And countering change, and scorning what men say,  / Of posing as a clove among the pots,  / Nor often gives her dignity away.  / Her head's a work of art: and, if her eyes  / Be tied and ignorant, she has a waist;  / Cheaply the mode she shadows; and she tries  / from penny novels to amend her taste;  / And, having mopped the zinc for certain years  / And faced the gas, she fades and disappears."
