Lily Rave a party, And her little playmates all, To dlnce at Lilys ball. Little Quaker Primrose Sat and never etirrd, And, except in Tvuispers, Tulip fine nnd Dahlia Snowdrop nearly faintedBecause the room was hot, And went away before the reiiWith sweet Forget-me-not. Tansy danced with Daffodil, Rose with Violet;Sillv D;»isy fell in love Willi pr. Uv Mignonnette. Between the dances, when they aWere seated in their places, 1 thought Id never seen beforeSo many pretty faces. But of all tho pretty maidensI saw at Lilys ball, Darling Lily was to meThe sweetest of them all. And when the dance was over, They went down stairs to sup,And each had a taste of honey-cake, And all were dressd to go awayAnd Lily said Good-by! and gave Lily and all her little friendsWere fast asleep iu bed. ONWARD. Nor look, nor footstep backward turn,Though mmiy a vanished scene be fair Therms le;i nepenthe in the urnOf Memory than despair.
