Auspicious Hope in thy sweet garden grow / Wreaths for each toil, a charm for every woe, / Won by their sweets in natures languid hour / The way worn Pilgrim seeks thy summer bower / There as the wild bee murmurs on the wing / What peaceful dreams thy hand maid spirits bring / What viewless forms the Aeolian organ play / And sweep the furrowed lines of anxious thought / Wrought by Eunice R. Haskell Aged 11 years. 1832 . //
