THE PLATES ENGRAVED AFTER ORIGINAL DRAWINGS FROM NATURE
BY THE AUTHOR.

SECOND EDITION.

I sing of brooks, of blossomes, birds, and bowers,

Of April, May, of June and July flowers,

I sing of youth, of love too, and I write

How roses first came red, and lilies white;

I write of groves and twilight, and I sing

The court of Mab, and of the Fairie King.-HERRICK.

There's wit in every flower, if you can gather it.-SHIRLEY.
