AND FLOWERS OF POETRY. 
ILLUSTRATION OF PLATE. 
Crown Imperial and Turk’s Cap Lilies. — Lily of the Valley. 
You have the power to restore me to happiness. 
- Will you say no, dear, 
When soft and low, dear, 
Love pleads for love, which you only can give? 
Will you then fly me ? 
Can you deny me ? 
One little “ yes” would allow me to live. 
Care hovers o’er me, 
Clouds, wild and stormy, 
Darken before me — but one smile of thine, 
Through sorrow’s haze, love, 
Softly can raise, love, 
Hope’s sunny rainbow — bright and benign!
