Michaelmas Daisy ... 
... Farewell. 
Short absence hurt him more, 
And made his wound far greater than before; 
Absence not long enough to root out quite 
All love, increases love at second sight.

.*... JULY 20 -.r.— 
Mignonette _ Your qualities surpass your charms . 
This fragant bloom of garden birth, 
So modest, yet persuasive— 
Because the sweet it saps from earth 
By fulness is invasive— 
Is truest measure of my love, of all the flowers I’ve met— 
Une “ herbe damour ”—fttite in girth 
Delicious mignonette!

Milkwort ---. Hermitage. 
And let the aspiring youth beware of love, 
Of the smooth glance beware; for ’tis too late, 
When on his heart the torrent—softness pours. 
T HOMPSON.
