TO THE TRAILING ARBUTUS
BY PARK BENJAMIN

BY PARK BENJAMIN.
Thou comest when Spring her coronal weayes,
And thou hdest thysef mid dead strewn leave:
Where the young grass lifts its tender blade,
Thy home and thy resting place are made;
And in the spot of thy lowly birth,
Unseen, thou bloomest like modest worth
The richest jewel, the rarest gem
May never bloom in a dadem.
What knowest thou of the glittering pride
OF wales that blush, like jeweled BRIDE
When the pomp of roses and gilded flowers
Springs mid the falling of Summer showers!
What canst thou know of those breathing skies,
Adorned with the diamonds of paradise
Or the sunrise crown, or the golden flow
Of noontde streams in their deep warm glow?
Thou comest from Winters cold caress,
To rejoice in the young Springs lovelness
But thou seest the sky when the cloud appears,
And the blue eye of heaven is dim with tears,
And, cold and clear, o'er thy dewy bed
The starbeam lustre Of night is shed;
And no bright-tinting flashes are seen.
Though morn be cloudess and eve serene
Yet, flower of modesty, born alone
When the leaves of Autumn still lie strown,
Art thou not dearer, in SPRING first prime,
Than the farcst rose of the Summer time
Thus in her pathway of joy and light,
Away from the idle gazer's sight,
lis meet that Beauty should pass her hour,
Lonely and modest, like thee sweet flower,
