SPRUCE. — Hope in Adversity. 
Weary way -wanderer, languid and sick at heart, 
Travelling painfully over the rugged road, 
Wild-visaged wanderer ! God help thee, wretched

Cold is thy heart and as frozen as Charity ! 
* * Now God be thy Comforter !

YEW. — Sadness. 
Sister Sorrow ! sit beside me, 
Or, if I must wander, guide me ; 
Let me take thy hand in mine, 
Cold alike are mine and thine. 
Think not, Sorrow, that I hate thee, — 
Think not I am frightened at thee, — 
Thou art come for some good end ; 
I will treat thee as a friend. R. M. Milnes.
