_The Mermaid Culture Club request / That you will kindly be / On such and such a day their guest / At something after three._
I wrote at once that "I should be / Most charmed," and donned my best / Dress diving-suit, -- a joy to see, -- / And at their club-house 'neath the sea / Arrived at "something after three" / Promptly (unpunctuality / Is something I detest).
