Its matchless splendor shining,
Its pearly light, its starry sheen-

THE ROSY CROWN.

Of Flora's richest treasure;
We lead thee on with joy and glee,

To mirth and youthful pleasure.

Beyond death's darksome river,
The cross of Christ you here must bear
Then it is yours forever!-Seek &c.

To shine above that brow of snow,

With soft and lovely splendor. Cho.

3. Then wear, dear maid, the wreath we twine, Thy fairy ringlets shading;

And be its charms the type of thine,

In all except in fading. Cho.
