The Spike: or, Victoria College Review, October 1910

Chloes Philosophy

Chloes Philosophy.

Chloe in her toadstool that
Is a dream of airy grace,
Yet I often wonder at
Chloe in her toadstool hat;
Why, with beauty such as that,
Should she wish to hide her face?
Chloe in her toadstool hat
Is a dream of airy grace.

Chloe in her bottle skirt
Goes her way in flips and hops;
Though she's such an awful flirt,
Chloes in her bottle skit,
I shall win her for a cert,
I shall catch her as she drops.
Chloe in her bottle skirt
Goes her way in flips and hops.

Chloe in her little shoes
Trips along on tiny toes;
Where's the man that could refuse
Where's her little shoes?
But I hold the strongest views
On those droopy-oopy bows :
Chloe in her little shoes
Trips along on tint toes.

Thus says Chloe unto me,
Answering my present passion:"
"You had better wait and see,"
Thus says Chloe unto me,
In a decade you may be
"Once again my latest fashion."
Thus says Chloes unto me,
Answering my present passion.
