I knew you saw as if they flowered before us,
The sweet Rhoilora Canadensis,
The lush Wistaria Sinensis,
The Lepsosiphon Densifiorvs—
All flowers that swell the Summer's colour-chorus.
And, lightened by your smile, I saw, my Alice,
The modest Résida Odorata—
Linaria Reticulata—
I drank the sweets of Summer's chalice,
Sparkling Calendula Officinalis.
