Signification . . Peace. 
Emblem Olive. 
Sentiment .... Peace. 
Where is peace ? can ’st tell, can ’st tell ? 
Does she with the miser dwell ? 
As he hoards his glittering wealth, 
At expense of ease and health ? 
Loves she Glory’s wreath to twine, 
Kneeling at Ambition’s shrine 1 
Or in gay and festive hall 
■Waits she Pleasure’s siren call ? 
Seek her not ’mid pomp and power ! 
Seek her not in pleasure’s bower ! 
In the miser’s darkened cell, 
Peace, sweet peace, can never dwell. 
Par from pomp and noise and mirth, 
At the dear domestic hearth, 
Where the humble kneel in prayer, 
Peace, sweet peace, is ever there.
