10 violet dropping her dew la,lened head:
."rhe hly's in love for SHE listened last night
While her sisters ill slept in the holy moonlight,
TO zephyr that just had been rocking the rose
W here, hidden, hearkened in seeming rcposo.

But the secret Is safe with a spirit so true
II will rest In your bosom In silence profound"
The violet bent her blue eye to the ground;
tear and smile in her loving look lay
While tho lght-winged gossip went whirring away
II will toll You secret I" the honcy-bce said,
And the young lily lifted her beautiful head.
The violet thinks, with her timid blue eye,
To pass for a blossom enchantfngly shy;
But for all her sweet manners, 30 modest and pure,
She gossips with every gay bird that sings to her.
Now, let me advise you, sweet flower, a. . friend,

Thus wrongng spirit sotruthfull and true.
But not for the world, love, my secret betray:"
And the little, light gossip, went buazing away,
A blush in the lillys cheek trembled and fed;
I'm sorry he told me, she tenderly said
