STAR OF BETHLEHEM. Reconciliation. 



Ornithogalum. 



Love quarrels oft in pleasing concord end. Milton. 



I would have my love 



Angry sometimes, to sweeten off the rest of her be- 

 haviour. B. Jonson. 



And well do vanish'd frowns enhance 

 The charm of every brighten'd glance ; 

 And dearer seems each dawning smile, 

 For having lost its light awhile. . . . 



Moore. 



The short passing anger but seem'd to awaken 

 New beauty, like flowers that are sweetest when shaken. 



same. 



***** No cloud 

 Of anger shall remain ; but peace assur'd 

 And reconcilement. Milton. 



ST. JOHN'S WORT. 

 Hypericum. 



Superstition. Lovely beyond the painter's brightest dream, 



Vision of beauty ! Can it be of earth 

 Or, is it some celestial habitant 

 Of yonder gorgeous palaces of air, 

 Built by the genii in the evening sky ? . . S. P. C. 



I took it for a fairy vision 

 Of some gay creatures of the element, 

 That in the colours of the rainbow live, 

 And play i' th' plighted clouds. . . . 



Say from what far and sunny shore, 

 Fair wonder, thou dost rove ; 



Lest what I only should adore, 



I heedless think to love 



Milton. 



C***e. 



STRAWBERRY TREE. 



Arbutus. 



Esteem and Love. 



O, why is gentle love 

 A stranger to that mind, 

 Which pity and esteem can move, 

 Which can be just and kind. . . 



Lyttelton. 



Love is not love, 



When it is mingled with respects, that stand 

 Aloof from the entire point Shakt. 



Friendship, when we ask for love, is like the fra- 

 grance of remote flowers, that faintly touches the 

 senses ; or, like the beams of the chaste moon that 

 gives us light, but yields not warmth. . S. Johnson. 



I do love you more than words can wield the matter. 



***** 



A love that makes breath poor, and speech unable. . 



Sfiaks.
