Have lost their rounded pride:
The bitter-sweet chrysanthemums

Where precious wealth lies buried, not of gold,

I know not which I love the most,
Nor which the comeliest shows,
The timid, bashful violet
Or the royal-hearted rose:

The pink with cheek of red,
Or the faint, fair heliotrope, who hangs,
Like a bashful maid her head.

And where the ground is bright with friendship's tears,
Forget-me-not, and violets, heavenly blue,
Spring glittering with the cheerful drops like dew.

Mourn, little harebells, o'er the lea;
Ye stately foxgloves fair to see!
Ye woodbines, hanging bonnilie
In scented bowers!
Ye roses on your thorny tree
The first o' flow'rs.
