156 FLORA’S DIAL. 
November 22. 
GOURD. — Unrequited affection. 
Farewell! ’tis mine to prove 
Of blighted hopes the pain ; 
But, 0, believe, I cannot love, 
As I have loved, — again ! 
i 
Farewell! ’t is thine to change, 
Forget, be false, be free ; 
But know, wherever thou shaft range, 
That none can love like me. Tupper. 
Noucmbcr 23. 
FUSCHIA. — Faithfulness. 
When woman’s eye grows dull, 
And her cheek paleth, 
When fades the beautiful, 
Then man’s love faileth. 
He sits not beside her chair, 
Clasps not her fingers, 
Twines not the damp hair 
That o’er her brow lingers. 
James Nack.
