O golden days, O woodland ways, 
And sunny meadows teeming 
With treasurers rare, most royal fare. 
For bard's or lover's dreaming. 
O silvery stream, with glint and gleam 
Where dipping boughs are laving, 
The current lags, where Sweet Blue Flags 
By ripples stirred are waving.

time. One of the finest iris we have ever grown. Flighlv 
recommended. $ .75
