THE FLOWER VASE, 
ROSE —MITE. 
Rosa alba. 
One of the most fragrant of the -whole genus Rosa. 
Too young to love. 
Thou art looking now at the birds, Genie, 
But oh, do not wish their wing; 
That would tempt the fowler, Genie,— 
Stay thou on earth and sing. 
Stay in the nursing nest, Genie, 
Be not soon thence beguiled; 
Thou wilt ne’er find a second, Genie, 
Never be twice a child. 
Miss Jewsbuky.
