Lupine 
Voraciousness. 
Beyond the sense 
Of light refection, at the genial board 
Indulge not often; nor protract the feast 
To dull satiety; till soft and slow 
A drowsy death creeps on th’ expansive soul, 
Oppress’d and smother’d the celestial fire. 
Armstrong. 
JULY 11 
Love of nature. 
Magnolia ... 
I love thee for the blossoms and the bees, 
The hills, the vales, the mountains, and the seas; 
The winds, the clouds, the skies of azure blue 
The moon, the stars, and planets circling through; 
The earth, the sun, and everything that’s fair, 
Above, below, all round and everywhere— 
The soul, the mind, to their Creator call 
To Him, the Father, First and Last of all. 
JULY 12 
Goodness. 
Mallow 
Man should dare all things that he knows are right, 
And fear to do no act but what is wrong; 
But guided safely by his inward light, 
And with a permanent belief, and strong, 
In Him who is our Father and our Friend j 
He should walk steadfastly unto the end. 
jPHCEBE PaREY.
