SEPT 4 
Pine (Spruce) . Hope in adversity. 
Walk boldly and wisely in that light thou hast; 
There is a hand above will help thee on. 
AILEY. 
Who is it that will doubt 
The care of heaven ? Or think th’immortal 
Pow’rs are slow, ’cause they take the privilege 
To choose their own time, when they will send 
Their blessings down. 
JAVENANT. 
SEPT 5 
Pink (Double Red). Pure and ardent love. 
To keep one sacred flame 
Through life unchilled, unmoved, 
To love in wintry age 
The same that first in youth we lov’d, 
To feel that we adore 
With such refined excess, 
That tho’ the heart would break with more, 
It could not live with less: 
^NON. 
SEPT 6 
... Pure love. 
For if there be a human tear 
From passion’s dross refined and clear, 
’Tis that which pious parents shed 
Upon a duteous daughter’s head. 
JScott.
