    An exquisite invention this,
    Worthy of Love's most honeyed kiss,--
    This art of writing billet-doux--
    In buds, and odors, and bright hues!
    In saying all one feels and thinks
    In clever daffodils and pinks;
    In puns of tulips; and in phrases,
    Charming for their truth, of daisies.

The conscience of us all
Can read without its glasses
On revelation's wall.

The carrier's not commission'd to expound;
It speaks itself, and what it does contain,
In all things needful to be known is plain.

My message will go kissingly to thine,
With more than Fancy's load of luxury,
And prove a true love-letter.
