Last Line: And die along with me!
Alternate Author Name(s): Marzials, Theo; Marzials, Theophile Jules Henri
Subject(s): Flowers; Gardens & Gardening; Roses


In the middle of my garden-bed
There stands a tall rose-tree;
I took the stem and shook and shook it,
Thick the flowers kept covering me.

And, oh! I said, you sweet large roses,
Red as rose can be,
Just drop into my bosom here,
And die along with me!
