And, day by day, succeeding troops

Of blooms, to marshal in their groups.

In town, it's different! All's wrought out

With least of her complicity,

By man-power, helped, as I misdoubt,

By steam and electricity.

The bed that yesterday was snow

To-morrow's plants, set all arow;

You press a button and they blow,

Just watch them and you'll see it's so.
