Fanny's Bad Habit

Title:     Fanny's Bad Habit
Author: Elizabeth Turner [More Titles by Turner]

Fanny Fletcher is forgetful,
Never wilful in her life,
Neither obstinate nor fretful,
Loving truth and shunning strife.

From a girl of so much merit,
May we not in time expect
She will show a proper spirit
One wrong habit to correct?

Friends will say it is a pity
If her resolution fails--
Fanny looks both good and pretty
When she does not bite her nails!

[The end]
