A BED OF IRIS “EASTER MORN” IN FULL BLOOM 
“Flower of Chivalry ’ 
A sword for a leaf and a lily for your heart, 
Flower of Chivalry,” of my garden a part. 
King Richard so named thee, a joy to his sight, 
Insignia you were for many a bold knight. 
And when they rode forth, for them you stood 
The emblem of chaste womanhood. 
All down through the ages, your glory has shone, 
Ah, beautiful Iris, proud history you own ! 
Fair France upon you lays her claim, 
While in England the Rose has enhanced her fame. 
But each is a queen and knows her own worth, 
And proudly your heads crown the old Earth.
