Do you remember how that once, from Rome, I sent you a poor wild-flower? tribute small To thy great kindness! yet upon the wall It grew, where bends the blue aerial dome A bove the Coloseum ;and the loam That gave it life was sacred ;and oer all Reigned present the grand Past imperial! And you disdained not the poor scentless bloom. Thus may it be with these poor songs of mine Less mine than Italy s, born of her skies, Rocked to the rhythm of the swaying vine, And nurtured where all night the rose replies In perfumed whisperings, while all the vale Rings with the joy of the enamored nightingale. Cincinnati, August SO, 1858.
