May you be happy. 
In gardens oft a beauteous flower there grows. 
By vulgar eyes unnoticed and unseen; 
In sweet securit.v it humbly blows, 
And rears its purple head to deck the green. 
This flower, as Nature’s poet sweetly sings, 
Wasonoe milk-white,and Hearts-ease was its name 
Till wanton Cupid poised his roseate wings, 
; A vestal’s sacred bosom to inflame. ■ 
** With treacherous aim the god his arrow drew. 
Which she with icy coldness did repel; 
Rebounding thence with leathery speed it flew. 
Till on this lovely flower at last it fell. 
Hearts-ease no more the wandering shepherds found, 
jSo more the nymphs its snowy form possess : 
Its white now changed to purple by Love’s wound, 
Hearts-ease no more, ’tis Love-in-idleness.
