PENSEZ A MOL 
Pansee, or Heart’s Ease. — Viola tricolor. 
“ -And there are pansies, that’s for thoughts.” 
Shakspeare. 
“ And thou, so rich in gentle names, appealing 
To hearts that own our nature’s common lot; 
Those, styl’d by sportive fancy’s better feeling 
‘ A Thought,’ ‘ The Heart’s Ease,’ or ‘ Forget me not..’ ” 
Barton. 
Thoughts are not more numerous than the 
varieties of this little sportive flower, since it 
is difficult to find two alike, although we 
generally see 
“-The garden’s gem 
Heart’s ease, like a gallant bold, 
In his cloth of purple and gold.” 
Leigh Hunt. 
In the flowers of the saints the pansee is 
dedicated to St. Euphrasia.
