FABLE IX. 



THE BEE-FLOWER 



Come, let us leave this painted plain; 



This waste of flowers that palls the eye: 

 The walks of Nature's wilder reign 



Shall please in plainer majesty. 



* This is a species of the Orchis, which is found in the barreo 

 and mountainous parts of Lincolnshire, Worcestershire, Kent and
