THE FLORAL
VERBENA.
A huge feeder,
Snail-slow in profit, and he sleeps by day
More than the wild-cat.
Snail-slow in profit, and he sleeps by day
More than the wild-cat.
Shakspeare.
An unlessoned girl, unschooled, unpractised;
Happy in this, she is not yet so old
But she may learn; happier than this,
She is not bred so dull but she can learn;
Happiest of all is, that her gentle spirit
Commits itself to yours to be directed,
As from her lord, her governor, her king.
Happy in this, she is not yet so old
But she may learn; happier than this,
She is not bred so dull but she can learn;
Happiest of all is, that her gentle spirit
Commits itself to yours to be directed,
As from her lord, her governor, her king.
Shakspeare.
