FORGET ME NOT. 
There is a flower, a lovely flower, 
Tinged deep with Faith’s unchanging hue: 
Pure as the ether in its hour 
Of loveliest and serenest blue. 
The streamlet’s gentle side it seeks, 
The silent fount, the shaded grot, 
And sweetly to the heart it speaks, 
Forget me not! Forget me not! 
Mild as the azure of thine eyes, 
Soft as the halo-beam above, 
In tender Whispers still it sighs, 
Forget me not! my life, my love! 
Here, where thy last steps turned away, 
Wet eyes shall watch the sacred spot, 
And this sweet flower be heard t® say, 
Forget! Ah no ! Forget me not!
