flora’s dial. 79 
June A 
DAILY ROSE. — A Smile. 
For some she feels her bosom pant, 
For some she feels it smart ; 
To all she gives enchanting smiles, — 
To one she gives her heart. Lovibond. 
June 5. 
LANCASTER ROSE. — Marriage. 
Let no repugnance to a single state, 
Lead to a union with a worthless mate ; 
A single lady, though advanced in life, 
Is much more happy than an ill-matched wife. 
Anon. 
June 6. 
THORN-APPLE. — Deceitfulness. 
Women of kind have conditions three : 
The first is, — they be full of deceit, 
To spinne also is their property, 
And women have a wonderful* conceit, 
For they can weep oft, and all is a sleight, 
And ever when they list, a tear is in the eye, 
Beware, therefore, — the blind eateth many a fly. 
Chaucer.
