| sent my love two roses-one
AS white as driven snow,
And one a blushing royal red,
A flaming Jacqueminot.
| meant to touch and test my fate;
That night / should divine,
The moment / should see my love,
If her true heart We're mine.
For if she holds me dear, l said,
She'll wear my blushing rose;
If not, she'll wear my cold Mamarque.
AS white as winters SHOWS.
My heart sank when / met her. sure

For on her breast my pale rose lay
In virgin Wilderness cold.
Yet with low words she greeted me,
With smiles divinely tender;
Upon her cheek the red rose dawned--
The white rose meant surrender
