FLORA’S DIAL. 99 
Snlij 20. 
BULRUSH. — Independence. 
We’ve learned to love without each other, 
Though once we thought the lesson vain ; 
The pangs of wounded pride I ’ll smother 
And be myself again! 
Mrs. 0. B. Wilson. 
Jnlri 21. 
CANTERBURY-BELL. — Constancy in Adversity. 
Then come the wild weather, come sleet, or come 
snow, 
We will stand by each other however it blow. 
Oppression, and sickness, and sorrow, and pain, 
Shall be to our true love, as links to the chain. 
Longfellow. 
Jnlij 22. 
CELANDINE. — Joys to come. 
Is it not sweet to think hereafter, 
When the spirit leaves this sphere, 
Love, -with deathless wing, shall waft her 
To those she long has mourned for here ? 
Oh! if no other boon were given, 
To keep our hearts from wrong and stain, 
Who would not strive to win a heaven 
Where all we love shall meet again? Moore.
