THE BOUQUET. 

Of that by which it charms the ear, 
The eye, of him that passes near — 
A lamp is lit in woman’s eye, 
That souls, else lost on earth, remember angels 
by. WILLIs. 
LILY OF THE VALLEY, 
CONVALLARIA MAJALIS. 
Delicate Simplicity. 
Farr girl! by whose simplicity 
My spirit has been won 
From the stern earthliness of life, 
As shadows flee the sun ; 
I turn again to think of thee, 
And half deplore the thought, 
That for one instant, o’er my soul, 
Forgetfulness hath wrought! 
I turn to that charmed hour of hope, 
When first upon my view 
Came the pure sunshine of thine heart, 
Borne from thine eyes of blue. 
?T was thy high purity of soul, 
Thy thought-revealing eye, 
That placed me spell-bound at thy feet, 
Sweet wanderer from the sky. 
WILLis G. CLARK.
