loyal to the exled chieftains cause.
Ion was the name bestowed upon the violet by
the imaginative Greek who loved to people the
petals OF every blossom and the ripples OF every
rill with fair creations Of their fancy. According
to mythology the name was derived from la, the
daughter Of Midas and the betrothed Of Atys. The
story runs that Diana, desiring to conceal the
maid from Apollo, transformed her into violet
Another myth about the birth OF the flower says
that Jupiter caused the first vfolets to spring

for poets to give names and human attributes
to plants but the beauty loving Greeks went
farther along the path Of fancy. They invented
human originals for their favorte flowers. and
made beautiful legends to account for the trans.

Shakespeare alludes to another romantic
legend In his winter Tale" The narcissus was
said to have been the flower that the daughter
OF Ceres was gathering when she was carried

goddesses also chose 1t for their ancient coronet,
