THE SKIRT DANCER. The white-wing'd Venus of the South, Whose radiant eyes and pearl set month, "Whose lissome form, and supple waist, Cloth'd with the most artistic taste In flowing draperies of gauze, Gain'd such a rapturous applause, That in the maidens' spirit crept A newborn sense of life. Adept At seizing a rapt crowd's emotion She danc cd foam frolic of the ocean. Th' audience rose, wav'd, and commended By shouts and show'rs of flow'rs and pearls, The lovely maid whose rippling carls, Hung maid-like below her waist, And undulating, not displac'd, Wavelika in their graceful motion, Added to the sense of ocean. Impromptu bold sea song was sung And then the clever creature hung Upon a mast, and like a sail Unfurl'd her robes, and all did hail The speedy change with cheers renew d, For she their spirits had imbued With Neptunfo's breezy influence, And rous'd afresh the innate sense Of ocean's boisterous element. —CHOHLTON. .—
