A little girl had a cousin whose name was Libbie Love, and she was much puzzled and quite jealous because the THE HEART SHE HAD. A}. WHO would think, to hear her laughing there, With old and young in groups about her chair, Enchanted by her ready repartee, Soothed by the sweet nepenthe of her mirth, And then Lashed by her cruel, caustic coquetry, Who'd think she has a heart—who upon earth?
