From golden censers round high affairs
One day the king passed by with stately
: tread.
And, reaching forth his hand, he lightly said,
All sweets are mine therefore this rose l
take,
And wear it in my bosom for Loves sake"
Then while the king passed on with smiling
face,
The sweet rose sloried in its pride of place.
But, an! the deeds that in Loves name are
The woful wreck wrought underneath the

Still with that smile upon his lip, the King
Laid his rash hand upon the beauteous thing !;
In hot haste tore the crimson leaves apart
And drained the sweetness from its glowing
heart,
Scared the soft petals with his fiery breath,
Then tossed il from him to ignoble death!
When next with idle steps passed that way,
Prone in the mire the kings fair rosebud lay.
