SENT WITH A ROSE TO A YOUNG LADY, by                 Poet Analysis    
First Line: Deep in a rose's glowing heart
Last Line: "should he send half the whole!"


DEEP in a Rose's glowing heart
I dropped a single kiss,
And then I bade it quick depart,
And tell my Lady this:
"The love thy Lover tried to send
O'erflows my fragrant bowl,
But my soft leaves would break and bend,
Should he send half the whole!"
