  • I troll you no song that will hinder you long, I pen you no ponderous treatise, The theme that I sing is a gossamer thing As light as the cakes at PELITI'S. Grey roofs mid the pines and a heaven that shines As blue as the water where Crete is, The malachite green of a misty ravine, That's the balcony view at PELITI'S. There are mortals, may be, who abominate tea , Who shy at the touch of a crumpet--for such There is music and love at PELITI'S. See that G.S.O.2 with the lady in blue; Has she noticed where one of his feet is, Or the issue that hangs on the plate of meringues Which he buys her each day at PELITI'S? Here the rulers of Ind, from the Salween to Sind, Take their ices and wafers And elaborate schemes over chocolate creams At five-o'clock tea at PELITI'S. And I think, when we die and the wraiths of us fly To that peace which depends not on treaties, The joys which we find will but serve to remind Of the hours that we spent at PELITI'S. (en)
