AFTER THE BLOOMING.

0, little rosebud, with petals red,
AS you nod by the garden wall
And dewdrops drink,
Do you ever think
That some day your petals will fall!
Some day your fragrance will all be gone,
Your sweetness a thing of the past,
For II matters not how
Much priced you are now,
Little rosebuds cannot always last.
And 0, little maiden, with eyes so blue.
AS you sing and laugh and are gay,
Does 1t come to you
That some day, too,
Your roses will pass away?
But the little rosebud mods on the wall,
Caressed by the winds so free;
And the blue-eyed girl
swinging in the mad whirl,
Unheeding the song and me.
o., wise Ii tie rosebud ani wise little girl,
Why turn to the dark ere you must?
\ cd on and laugh on
III your pleasures are gone.
Live to-day! For the morrow-trust,
