INVITING by DANIEL CHAUNCEY BREWER

First Line: PRETTY AND SWEET, EVER SO NEAT
Last Line: WHO FOR THE MOMENT WOULD DARE TO RESIST?
Subject(s): FLIRTATION;
PRETTY and sweet, ever so neat,
Sitting alone in a @3tete-a-tete@1 seat,
Seeming to say by her negligent air,
"Come and sit side of me, sir, if you dare."

Saucy and pert, dying to flirt,
Knowing the ropes, and more than expert, --
When she goes further, and seems to insist,
Who for the moment would dare to resist?
