THE HEART’S DESIRE
COWSLIPS AND VIOLETS. Bowing adorers of the gale, Ye cowslips, delicately pale, Upraise your loaded stems; Unfold your cups in splendous speak! AViio deck’d you with that ruddy ■streak, And gilt your golden gems? Violets, sweet tenants of the shade, In purple’s richest pride array'd Your errand here fulfil; Go bid the artist’s simple stain A T our lusture imitate in vain, And match your Maker’s skill. —J. Clare. -X- -X- -X- * No longer forward nor behind. I look in hope or fear; But grateful that so good I find The best of now and here. * * 'X- -XSuccess treads on every right step. —Emerson. •X- -X- ■X* •X’ Can there he anything sadder than work left unfinished? Yes! Work never begun. C. Rosetti.
