Some years ago the bulbs of this variety were 

 brought here by Chinamen and grown in 

 dishes filled with pebbles and water where 

 they bloomed to perfection, hence the name 

 "Chinese Lily." The word sacred has been 

 added since as it was supposed that this 

 Narcissus was held sacred by the Chinese in
