Signification .. Truth. 
Emblem .White Crysanthemum. 
Sentiment .... Truth needs no Protestation. 
Nay, nay, my dear, speak not that word 
And wake my dream of bliss ! 
Would’st have those pouting lips say, No, 
The while thy eyes say yes ?' 
That tell-tale blush the truth reveals; 
Thy soul abhors deceit! 
And when thou would’st thy thoughts conceal, 
They to thine eyes retreat! 
And there thy truthful soul shines, out, 
Undimmed, in every glance ; 
The child-like frankness of thy heart, 
All other charms enhance. 
Remember love, thy truth has been 
The pole-star of my soul; 
And should I ever wish to rove, 
That star will still control.
