PRIMROSE. Clan 6. Order 1. Found in Europe and 



Primula America. It is one of the earliest spring 



HAVE CONFIDENCE IN ME. 



The Primrose, when with saxe leaves gotten grace, 

 Maids as a true love in their bosom place.

SENTIMENT. 



What though the world has whispered thee ' Beware!' 

 Thou dost not dream of change. Nay, do not speak, 

 For any answer would imply a doubt 

 In love's deep confidence, which not for worlds 

 Should have existence. 



There 's many a shadow resting on my name; 

 But oh! the world's false voice has feeble power 

 When love asserts his empire. 



Robert JUorru.
