FLORA’S DIAL. 65 
Jttag 4. 
MYRTLE. — Heart-felt Love . 
Out love came as the early dew 
Comes unto drooping flowers ; 
Dropping its first sweet freshness on 
Our life’s dull, lonely hours. 
As each pale blossom lifts its head 
Revived with blessings nightly shed 
By summer breeze and dew, — 
Oh, thus our spirits rose beneath 
Love’s gentle dews and living breath, 
To drink of life anew ! 
Mrs. E. S. Nichols. 
JttlTg 5. 
OPHRYS. ■ — Disgust. 
With lether eye 
And cheeks dry, 
And visage wan, 
Swart as tan ; 
When others are glad, 
He is sad, 
Erantick and mad ; 
His tongue never still 
Eor to say yll. Skelton. 1490.
