RHODOCLEA'S GARLAND.
I.
This garland of fair flowers, by meFondly wreathed, I send to thee,
Rhodoclea!
Lily, and love-cup are there,
Anemone with dewy hair,
Freshest violets dark-blue,
And the moist narcissus too,
Rhodoclea!
144
II.
Being crown'd with these, asideCast all vain, unmeaning pride,
Rhodoclea!
Cast vainglorious pride away;
Alike the pageants of a day,
Thou dost cease, and so do they,
Rhodoclea!
