Of Flowers and Bees
While Honey lies in Every Flower, no doubt,
It takes a Bee to get the Honey out.
The Daisy is a Weed of little Worth —
Save that it makes a Dearer Place of Earth.
N O Dearth of Roses honest Bumble pleads,
But draws Some Sort of Honey out of Weeds.
F OR each pure Rose
That now the Bush adorns,
The patient Gardener knows
A Hundred Thorns.
