ladies’ names. 139 
Signification . . A Lily. 
Emblem White Lily. 
Sentiment .... Purity and Modesty. 
When Poets flatter maidens fair. 
Their beauties to a rose compare; 
But to a Lily more I find 
The likeness true of Susan’s mind. 
Her modesty, and sweet, pure thoughts, 
Fresh to my mind the Lily brought ; 
Its beauty, purity, and grace 
Dwell in her heart, shine in her face. 
Dear Susan, may thy heart remain, 
Like the white Lily, free from stain ; 
Unlike the Lily — may naught ever 
With ruthless hand its cords dissever.
