Peru and Marjoram. Believe me when I say, I 
have no Mustard Seed , but great Myrtle, and your 
reciprocation would produce great Myrrh, and 
Mugwort in me. I greatly admire your Mulberry 
Tree, White Midlein and Marsh Mallow. Mig¬ 
nonette. Milk Vetch. I therefore Mezereon you. 
Sometimes I have much Mimosa, and Garden 
Marygold, and even Mushroom, lest you should 
not Mallow. O treat me not with Moonwort and 
Mustard Seed; for I am almost Syrian Mallow. 
Dearest one, excuse my Moschatel. 
A WISH. 
May angels guard thee, lovely maiden, 
And from dangers keep thee free; 
With richest blessings be thou laden, 
Bestow’d by heavenly love on thee. 
May thy life be paths of roses 
Yielding fragrance and delight; 
And when at last thy dear life closes, 
Mayst thou wake to heavenly light. 
A TOAST. 
May he who would plant a Thorn in the bosom of 
Innocence, die in a bed of Nettles!
