FUCHSIA. 
THE FOXGLOVE. 
TuE foxglove-leaves, with caution given, 
Another proof of favoring Heaven 
Will happily display : 
The rabid pulse it can abate, 
The hectic flush can moderate, 
And, blest by Him whose will is fate, 
: May give a lengthened day.

FOXGLOVE. 
Upon the sunny bank 
The foxglove rears its pyramid of bells, 
Gloriously freckled, purpled and white, the flower 
That cheers Devonia’s fields.

HE Fuchsia, a native of Chili, was named after 
Leonard Fuchs, a noted German botanist. 
As it is quite a modern addition to our gardens, 
there is little poetry as yet belonging to it.
