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.
