ONLY.

1t was only little flower,
That he gave to me one night
Only flower-but o, how fnst
Ny heart beat with delight
II was only little flower
A blossom so sweet and fair,
That on that moru-my bridal morn,
Adorned my dark brown hair.
II was only mourner's tear,
That fell on the upturned sod,
When a little flower. a pure white flower,
Went home to dwell with God.
II is only little flower,
That, alone, doth kneel to weep,
When night dcws fall, and stars guard all
All in their silent sleep.
