A TREASURY OF STORIES, JINGLES AND RAHYVMES.

LILY.

LILY, wonder-sweet
And pure as snow,
I cannot touch you,

Though I love you so.

It seems as though,
From out the blue aloft,
A cloud of angels drifted,

Slow and soft.

And resting on your tall green stalks
I found them.
With wings half-folded, and

Heaven’s fragrance round them.

Flelen Gray Cone.
