The two Miss Lloyds were twins, and dressed
In frocks and hats the same;
The friends who ought to know them best,
Sometimes mistook their name!

And if in temper they had proved
As much alike, they would
No doubt have been alike beloved,
But it was understood,

That Sarah could not bear rebuke
Without a sullen air,
Whilst Mary with a tearful look
Would promise better care.

So by and by when taller grown
Their faces will be better known.
