None in the garden sisterhood so fair
AS thou to greet the weary passer-by,
Thy slender form, tho fragile, lifted
high.
Or should the waxen star thy crown
doth wear,
Torn from its setting, light some maid
ems hair,
Thy fioret on the breast of beauty lie,
Or breathe its perfume to the open sky,
Still doth its incense weight the heavy
air,
And al the soul in soothing Ianguor
sleep.
And when at cofin-side we helpless
thrill
With sorrows pang, and Ger our dear
ones weep,
As aching eyes with painful tear
drops fill
With looking long upon our loved,
Thy subtle fragrance leaves the heart

tariff AS no returning passengers TO speak Of

tickets on the market is regarded as deliberate
effort to stock the market and measures were at
once taken to have the offending roads brought TO

secret payment OF commissions on this business.

For this execution they propose to impose an
