Signification . . Shining. 
Emblem Plane Tree. 
Sentiment .... Genius. 
What is genius ? — a meteor’s glare, 
Which bursts upon our sight ; 
And oft it lures its victims on, 
To shades of darkest night. 
It shines a moment — then is gone ! 
We watch to see it more ; 
But heavy clouds obscure its light,— 
That light we much deplore. 
’T is not the brightest orbs of light, 
Which shine with purest ray ; 
But those which steadiest show the path 
Which leads to endless day.
