Within her grasp she held fast, and when she let him go at last he rolled on the ground, all still and cold, for l never again would ho be bold, and S tell tho tlowers of love untrue, under i the sunny sky of blue. Then the night wind came and took away tho Bee and the flowers from where they lay, and the morning sun 1 saw not a' trace of the tragedies that ! had taken place.?
