Part II MY VALENTINE I sent my love a valentine— She was but six while I was nine. The card bore hearts and roses fine, And read, "I love you, Valentine." I sent my love a valentine. Ah, many swains for her did pine, With riches more, far more than mine, But yet—"l love you, Valentine." I send my love a valentine. Each year I write the same dear line, Content to us* the faithful sign That still "I love you. Valentine." JEAN CROSBY BRIDGHAM. THE presecae in Los Angeles of Mrs. W. H.
