Miss Nancy Etticott
Strode across the hills and broke them, / Rode across the hills and broke them- / The barren New England hills- / Riding to hounds
Over the cow-pasture.
Miss Nancy Ellicott smoked / And danced all the modern dances;
And her aunts were not quite sure how they felt about it, / But they knew that it was modern.
Upon the glazen shelves kept watch / Matthew and Waldo, guardians of the faith, / The army of unalterable law.
