DEW, by                    
First Line: Love is the flower of the world
Last Line: The dust of the world like dew.
Alternate Author Name(s): Le Bailly, Mrs.
Subject(s): Flowers; Love


LOVE is the flower of the world,
And the flower of the world lies sick;
So dry are its leaves, and curled,
The dust of the world so thick.

Come into my sight, my dear,
Its withering joy renew;
Drop into my heart, and clear
The dust of the world like dew.
