Violet, tender springtime flower, to thee I grant pre-eminence; for, having seen, O large and lustious ejes, I hold thee queen^ Long, long of many mcnly hcaits to be. "Fnough l"' you spy; "your lovehuc«s will fles Till but the faded petals may be seen, The shadow of the beauty that has been." Eubbish! Become v.hat God v. ou'd have you
be: Eternai, sweet beyond all human thought — Vast as the'ocoaaj of the Father's love; Eager lo do what Christ th? Saviour taught; Longing the sohtaiy ways to prove; Longing till eveiy wa\ward soul be brought Again to rest m Eden's sacred grove. —Mitchell.
