The White Butterfly.

II was a snow-white butterfly
Who DER the petals fresh and sweet
OF half-blown roses, meath a sky
For ever changing, winged his fleet
And hayward flight. AS fancy bid,
And dreams suggested, so he did.
It happened on a morn in May.
Lured by perfumed beam of light,
He met upon his fiowery way
A wasp in golden armor digit.
He followed, confident and bold,
The slender-waisted wasp of gold
Alas the mournfulness of things.
They found tue hapless butterfly
With riven side and broken wings.
And now the saddened roses sigh
And weep his fate, when daylight
through
The clouds appear, in tears Of dew.
