FLORA’S ALBUM. 




Hydrangea. 
A plant, the flowers of which are of a changeable hue. 
HEAKRTLESSNESS. 
Yes, farewell! farewell forever ! 
Thou thyself hast fixed our doom, 
Bade hope’s sweetest blossom wither, 
Never more for me to bloom. 
“ Unforgiving ” thou hast called me, 
Didst thou ever say ‘‘ forgive”? ? 
For the wretch whose wiles enthrallec thee, 
Thou didst seem alone to live. 
Wrapt in dreams of joy abiding, 
On thy breast my head hath lain ; 
In thy love and truth confiding, 
Bliss I cannot know again. 
He in whom my soul delighted, 
From his heart my image drove, 
With contempt my love requited, 
And preferred a wanton’s love. 
But, farewell !— I °l not upbraid thee, 
Never, never wish thee ill; 
Wretched though thy crimes have made me, 
If thou canst, — be happy still.
