12 BULLETIN OF THE LABORATORIES 



In my plot no tulips blow ; 



Snow-loving pines and oaks instead ; 

 And rank the savage maples grow, 



From Spring's first flush to Autumn red. 

 My Garden is a forest ledge, 



Which older forests bound."

 Wafting the puny seeds of power, 

 Which, lodged in rock, the rock abrade ? "
