Dodge, Mary Mapes, 1830-1905 · [New York : Scribner & Co.] · leaf 22
Violet, blue Violet, you wear a lovely color;Why, then, hide in lonely places, and why hang your pretty head ? In meek content I wear my blue, and should none else behold me.The Loving One who made me sees me in my lowly bed. O fair Arbutus, you are sweet, but why do you go creepingIn piney woods?…
