FABLES for the FANCIFUL.—No. IT,
CECILIA AND THE TULIP.
Amid the garden's peaceful shade,
At evening's tranquil hour,
Cecilia, meditating, strayed,
And in her leafy prozress stayed,
To pluck a beauteous flower.
" Fair lady," (quoth the chosen bloom,
'When taken from its stem)
" Those roses have a rich perfume—
Why take a tulip from the loom,
Instead of one of them ?" •

Cecilia smiled, and thus addressed
The golden-petalled flower :
" Fair bloom, it was thy beauteous crest,
Which made me choose thee from the rest,
That blossom in the bower.

" Flora has clothed thee with attire,
Which few but thee assume ;
And 'tis this dress which ranks the higher,
However much I may admire
The rose's scented bloom."
APPLICATION.
I heard—and smile not when I say
I thought of Moses' Mart,
Where fashion's flower., in choice display,
Attract admirers, day by day,
From many a distant part.
This splendid suit, by Moses made,
Has won Cecilia's smile;
She thinks the beauty here displayed,
Casts every other in the shade,
In point of make and style.

Had it not been for M. and Son.
She might have passed me by;
But dress like this, excelled by none,
Has, like the tulip's beauty, won
Cecilia's judging eye.
