A delicate and gaudy garden flower, brought originally 
from the Levant. 
DECLARATION OF LOVE. 
Your heart is a music-box dearest! 
With exquisite tunes at command, 
Of melody sweetest and clearest, 
If tried by a delicate hand; 
But its workmanship, love, is so find, 
At a single rude touch it would break; 
Then oh! be the magic key mine, 
Its fairy like whispers to wake ! 
And there’s one little tune it can play, 
That I fancy all others above— 
You learned it of Cupid one day— 
It begins with and ends with “I love! I love! 
It begins with and ends with “ I love.”
