THE GARDENER.

By Frederic R. Marvin

BY REV. FREDERIC R. MARVIN.
A GARDEN is the soul of man; Fair virtues are the flowers; Alternate joy and sorrow are The sunshine and the showers.
The Gardener is the Lord of heaven; He loves the flowers so sweet; He will not crush the humblest bud Beneath his passing feet.
Lord, train the plants within my soul, The ugly weeds uproot, Till all my life is fragrant with Sweet flowers and noble fruit.
