Through the garden
Ran the maid,
al must have a rose" she said,
"Take lily" some one whispered,
"Take a lily, child, instead"
But the roses hung in posies,
Brightly blushing overhead;
Up she spring, and, lightly laughing
Snatched one; but her finger bled.
So she chose
Her own sweet rose,
And her own sweet will-she had it
Had cruel thorn as well
Wouldn't tell-old Pride forbade 1t.

Pin may prick in bridal favor,
Still she bears il, wears it, till
All things end-no saint can save her
