'There blooms by Ganges' sacred stream
An horrible little flower,
Where falls the ray of morn's first beam
O'er gorgeous planet and spicy bower,
Its blossom breathes no sweet perfume
Till crushed in its lowly bed,
When richest odors from its tomb
On the passing air fere spread. , .
Thns truth of friends, in sunny hours
I Too modestly concealed,
' Like fragrance in these simple flowers,
1 Its depth and strength ate but revealed,
When stern misfortune's iron hand
Has crushed ns to the dust ;
Then shines its light divinely grand
And claims our holiest tiust.
