VOL. XIII.
—— All alone, amid her Garden fair, From morn to noon, from noon to dewy eve, She spent her days, her pleasing task to tend The flowers; to lave them from the water-spring; To ope the buds with her enamoured breath, Rank the gay tribes, and rear them in the sun. —— —— Thus plied assiduous her delightful task, Day after day, till every herb she named That paints the robe of Spring. Bruce.
