NEW Y EAR. 



A NOTHER flower this day I bring 

 ** Love s unassuming offering ; 



Perchance it may a fragrance leave, 

 That will a pleasant memory weave, 

 Thiough all the year now opening. 



This day to you fond wishes wing ; 

 Dear heart, may their sweet blossoming 

 In Life s fair garland interweave 

 Another flower ! 



RONDEAU. 



And may a quiet fragrance cling 

 To every flower the kind fates fling 



About your path ; ne er cause to grieve 

 May your contented heart receive, 

 And each succeeding year still bring 

 Another flower !
