WHAT  COULD  SHE  DO? 
If  I  kissed  you  would  you  be  in- 
Dignant  with  me— make  resistance? 
Flush  and  blush  and  order  me  In 
Tragic  tones  to  “keep  my  distance?’ 
Break  your  pretty  voice  In  two 
Calling  some  one  to  assist  you— 
Tell  me,  sweet,  what  would  you  do  . 
If  I  kissed  you? 
If  you  kissed  me  I  might  scold  you 
Under  certain  circumstances; 
And  at  more  than  arms-length  hold  you 
To  discourage  your  advances. 
But  if  none  were  near  but  you— 
As  at  this  minute— to  assist  me.
