FANNY.
Only two rosebuds ! • Yet she gave them to me — Ar an emblem of friendship •». They ever shall be. A cherished reminder Of that sweet summer day When Kenmoro was bright With the sun's golden ray. But too soon— ah ! too soon — Did the time pass away, And the bud* that she gave me Lie withered to-day. Only two rosebuds, •Now faded and dead ; Their bright leaves ara withered, Their fragrance has fled. Yet to me they are dearer 1 Than flowers of May — For the take of that friend Who gave them to me. Cavershaui, December 18. — 31. A.
