THE MTETIE. 
Brif;hfc glowed the Myrtle’s verdant pride, 
That near my lonely cottage sprung; 
But on the gale of eventide, 
The tree no grateful odours flung. 
Once with rude hand a branch I tore, 
And all its tender leaflets prest; 
When, pouring forth its hidden store. 
Its native sweetness'stood contest. 
’Tis thus in life’s untroubled day. 
The virtuous mind its charms withholds 
Nor always ventures to display 
That excellence the heart enfolds. 
But when severe misfortunes rise. 
Its genuine worth is felt and proved; 
And whilst it suffers, droops, or dies, 
’Tis doubly cherished, mourned, and loved.
