54 THE FLOWER VASE. 
Viola cucula. Class 5. — Order 1. 
A very pretty, but minute flower, growing by the brook- 
sides. Color, sky blue. 
True Love. 
Give not to weary thought the love 
That should be solely mine; 
Nor tire thee of the shrinking dove 
Thou call’st so fondly thine. 
I know my words are weak and small — 
For mind like thine, unmeet; 
But I have love beyond them all, 
To lavish at thy feet. 
Nay, heed it not, this foolish tear 
That trembles iu mine eye; 
It always comes when thou art here; 
I know not how, or why. 
It is not grief, or pain, or joy; 
It comes of love, may be ; 
Tnen do not thou the spell destroy— 
’T is bliss to weep for thee!
