“ Last smile of the departing year, 
Thy sister sweets are flown! 
Thy pensive wreath is far more dear 
From blooming thus alone. 
“Thy tender blush, thy simple frame, 
Unnoticed might have passed ; 
But now thou com’st with softer claim, 
The loveliest and the last. 
‘“‘ Sweet are the charms in thee we fnd— 
Emblem of hope’s gay wing; 
Tis thine to call past bloom to mind, 
To promise future spring.
