58 THE FLOWER VASE. 
Pelagorium capitatum. Class 16. — Order 7. 
Leaves rose-scented. Flowers purplish pink. 
Preference. 
Others may wear a gayer smile, 
And speak in richer tones; 
But ah! my heart, my heart, the while, 
Each spell, save thine, disowns. 
Dearer to me one word of thine 
Than all that others speak; 
My heart I lay upon thy shrine — 
Accept it ere it break.
