In every shady nook, 
And ladies’ eardrops deck the banks 
Of many a babbling brook.”

NATURAL FLOWER 
OUTWARD BOUND 
Ship, Ahoy ! She takes the lead, 
Built for freight and yet for speed, 
Carrying plants and bulbs and seeds, 
Everything the garden needs. 
The sailor lads so bold and free, 
Put out again the world to see; 
At every port their craft will call 
With goods from Vick’s for one and all.
