Tulip (Red) . ........_ Declaration of love. 
I dare not linger near thee as a brother, 
I feel my burning heart would still be thine; 
How could I hope my passionate thoughts to smother, 
When yielding all the sweetness to another 
Which should be mine.

Turnip.... Charity. 
^Vouldst thou from sorrow find a sweet relict 
Or is thy heart oppress’d with woe untold: ^ 
Balm wouldst thou gather for corroding grief, 
Pour blessings round thee like a shower of gold. 
Parlos )Vilcox. 
Let shining charity adorn your zeal, 
The noblest impulse generous minds can feel.

Valerian . Obliging disposition. 
Can I yield you blessings? says the friendly heart 
Fear not X am poorer, though I much impart. 
Wherefore should you thank me ? giving is my need; 
Love that wrought none comfort, sorrow were indeed. 
JwUCY J.ARCOM. 
Devoted, anxious, generous, void of guile, 
And with her whole heart’s welcome in her smile. 
Mrs. JSIorton.
