Place Aux Dames
by Arthur Macy[To M.]
With brilliant friends surrounding me,
So cosy at the Club I'm sitting;
While you at home I seem to see,
Attending strictly to your knitting.
When women have their rights, my dear,
We'll hear no more of wrongs so shocking: -
You with your friends shall gather here;
I'll stay at home and darn the stocking!
