184 CEDAR TREE.^WHITE PIx\K. 



THE CEDAR TREE. 



The use of this wood for all purposes requiring strength, 

 has been proverbial from the time of Solomon to the pre- 

 sent day. 



Yet heaven their various plants for use designs, 

 For houses, cedars; and for shipping, pines. 



VIEGIL. 



Cedaes here, 



Coeval with the sky-crown'd mountain's self, 

 Spread wide their giant arms.

THE WHITE PINK. 



This flower, so richly gifted with odour, is emblematical 

 of those persons who benefit society by their talents. 



Sweet flower, beneath thy natal sky 

 No fav'ring smiles thy scents invite; 



To Britain's worthier regions fly, 



And paint her meadows with delight. 



SHAW. 



Each pink sends forth its choicest sweet 

 Aurora's warm embrace to meet. 



MRS. M. ROBINSON.
