Garden Marigold. 
A bright yellow flower, once held sacred to Venus. 
SACRED AFFECTION. 
Qh ! in the varied scenes of life, 
Is there a joy so sweet, 
As when aniid its busy strife 
Congenial spirits meet? 
Feelings and thoughts, a fairy band, 
Long hid from mortal sight, 
Then start, to meet the master har.d, 
That calls them into light. 
When, turning o’er some gifted page, 
llow fondly do we pause, 
That dear companion to ngage 
In answering applause ! 
And when we list to Musie’s sigh, 
How sweet, at every tone, 
To read within another’s eye 
7 The 
The raptur2 of our own. 4
