Pansies? You praise the ones that grow today
Here in the garden; had you seen the place
When Sutherland was living!

From blue to deeper blue, in midst of each

Each broader, bigger than a silver crown;

And stir beneath his smile like living things:
The very sunshine loved them, and would lie
Here happy, coming early, lingering late,
Because they were so fair.
