Taxus Baceata ,—Class 5, Order 13. 
A sombre-looking shrub, U9ed for funeral purposes.—-from 
Great Britain' 
SORROW. 
Weep for the love that fate forbids, 
Yet loves unhoping on, 
Though every light that once illumed 
Its early path is gone. 
Weep for the love that must resign 
The heart’s enchanting dream, 
And float like some neglected bark, 
Adown life’s lonely stream. 
Weep for the breaking breast condemn’d 
To see its youth pass by, 
Whose lot has been, in this cold world, 
To dream, despair, and die. 
L. E. Landon.
