Two roses on one slender spray In sweet communion grew, Together hailed the morning ray And drank the evening dew.

Gashed with honourable scars,Low in Glory's lap they lie;Though they fell, they fell like stars,Streaming splendour through the sky.

When evening closes Nature's eye, The glow-worm lights her little spark To captivate her favorite fly And tempt the rover through the dark.

When to the cross I turn my eyes,And rest on Calvary,O Lamb of God, my sacrifice,I must remember Thee.

The tulip's petals shine in dew, All beautiful, but none alike.

Time is eternity begun.

Fairest and best adorned is she Whose clothing is humility.
