O, say have you heard of Duvernay?

They tell me she's able to earn a

Hundred pounds in a night,

Such crowds she'll delight —

What danseuse is like to Duvernay?

If you e'er go to see this Duvernay,

Just notice her when she shall turn a

Most sweet pirouette,

And you'll never regret

Forking out to behold this Duvernay.

Would you know where you may see Duvernay?

You must go to Pall-mall, and just turn a

Little up a wide street,

When the Opera you'll meet,

And there you'll behold this Duvernay.

Tell me not of Leroux or Taglioni;

One's too stout, and the other's too bony:

If you see them all three,

You'll be thinking with me,

Of all dancers the flow'r is Duvernay.
