ROSE, RED...BASHFUL LOVE. 
O blushing red rose, favourite flower! 
In thy beauty and fragrance, 0 what power! 
Plac’d in thy centre, thou hast a rich store 
Of fragrance so sweet, to please us still more. 
Thou’rt the symbol of one whom I love more 
Than the treasures of earth—a mighty store! 
Shrinking and modest like thee, sweet Rose, 
When the dear one does rich beauties disclose.
