THE WIND AND THE LILY.

The lily lifted her milk-white bloom,
Ami she freighted the air with a soft per-
fume, ~ ---
And the warm wind came from the sultry
vale
And he kissed her petals so soft and pale.
With fearless heart she reared her head,
For she thought there was naught from the
wind to d. cad.
And she wrapped her round in her spotless
pride.
And she shed her fragrance on every side.
But the wind grew warmer and stronger
still,
And he kissed her cup with nn ardent will;
And her petals dropped IN the burning air,
While her beauty waned with mute despair.
But the wind passed by with n careless smile,
AID he sought new buds in n little while;
Yet he gave no wealth TO the perfect flower,
But he took from her-beauty, pride and
power.
pondered the lesson in thoughtful fashion;
The LILY was virtue-the wind was passion.
