around her neck o. a fine gold chain with
four pink coral clasps. The nun gave
one the idea OF the most exquisite bed OF
roses. and they were so natural / almost
Imagined I could smell them. The nun
was made on a wire frame, and covered
first with pale pink tule, which showd
here and there among the green leaves
and buds Then the whole was covered
with small shaped pink roses. II was
lined with pink India silk, and the girl
had her card-case and dainty lace hand
