LADIES’ NAMES. 15 
Signification . . Friendship. 
Emblem .Box. 
Sentiment .... Constancy in Friendship. 
Thebe’s beauty in the morning dew 
That gems each leaf and spray ; 
But when beneath the sun’s bright beams. 
It soon will pass away. 
And sweet the songs that greet the ear 
L From birds at dawn of day; 
They fill our hearts with cheerfulness,— 
But soon they pass away. 
The fragrance sweet of buds and flowers 
We meet where’er we stray; 
We love their silent influence, 
But soon they pass away. 
We love the sunbeams of the morn, 
And they cheer us all the day; 
True friendship, constant like the sun, 
Will never pass away.
