   Barbara,

  now, 
  to 
  some

  cultivated, 
  is 
  one 
  of 
  rare 
  beauty

  grace. 
  

   As

  tree, 
  for 
  it 
  attains 
  to 
  the 
  height 
  of 
  15 
  feet, 
  it 
  will 
  be 
  

   highly 
  esteemed

  more 
  generally 
  known. 
  The 
  flowers 
  are 
  purple, 
  about 
  

   two

  If

  the
