Neglected flower that in the ocean blooms,
Poor exile from the fragrant groves of earth,
What sorrow rises in thy salt perfumes.
To what sad thoughts thy humble charm give!
BIRTH
Tossed by the tempest and the fiuctuant tide,
The vulgar plaything Of the Shiny eel
Crushed by the vessels keel or cast aside
What bitterness thy injured sense must feel,
Thy lovely sisters blush on field and lawn,
The lily, pink and rose are kin to thee:
Yet thou art destined from grim night till dawn
To hide thy envy in the meaning sea!
Alss! none know why thou vert cr7lelly torn
From leafy woodlands and fair orchards blest,
Nor why thou shouldst not have been purely born
a tuberose, to grace some gentle breast
Unless the Eternal, il his august might,
A secret usage for thy beauty found,
And made thee to fulfill some sacred rite
Upon the CHASTITY foreheads Of the drowned!
