AN ACKNOWLEDGMENT
Fair flowers! the hand I fain would kiss,
That so among you lightly moved,
To gather this—and this—and this—
The while you nodded and approved.

To gather this—and this—and this—
The while you nodded and approved.
In culling leaves so rare of scent,
It was (was it not?) her intent
To grace a friendship old as ours
With fragrance passing that of flowers?
