It was not my fault 30 If you never turned your eye's tail up 31 As I shook upon E in alt, 32 Or ran the chromatic scale up: 33 For spring bade the sparrows pair, 34 And the boys and girls gave guesses, 35 And stalls in our street looked rare 36 With bulrush and watercresses. 37 Why did not you pinch a flower 38 In a pellet of clay and fling it? 39 Why did not I put a power 40 Of thanks in a look, or sing it? 41 I did look, sharp as a lynx, 42 (And yet the memory rankles,) 43 When models arrived, some minx 44 Tripped up-stairs, she and her ankles. 45 But I think I gave you as good! 46 'That foreign fellow,--who can know 47 How she pays, in a playful mood, 48 For his tuning her that piano?' 49 Could you say so, and never say 50 'Suppose we join hands and fortunes, 51 And I fetch her from over the way, 52 Her, piano, and long tunes and short tunes?' 53 No, no: you would not be rash, 54 Nor I rasher and something over: 55 You've to settle yet Gibson's hash, 56 And Grisi yet lives in clover. 57 But you meet the Prince at the Board, 58 I'm queen myself at bals-par?, 59 I've married a rich old lord, 60 And you're dubbed knight and an R.A. 61 Each life unfulfilled, you see; 62 It hangs still, patchy and scrappy: 63 We have not sighed deep, laughed free, 64 Starved, feasted, despaired,--been happy. 65 And nobody calls you a dunce, 66 And people suppose me clever: 67 This could but have happened once, 68 And we missed it, lost it for ever.
