'''To a Violet''' by Thomas Russell (1762-1788), adapted from first two stanzas of “An ein Veilchen” by Christian Felix Weisse (1726-1804) Though from thy bank of velvet torn, Hang not, fair flower, thy drooping crest; On Delia's bosom shalt thou find A softer sweeter bed of rest. Though from mild Zephyr's kiss no more Ambrosial balms thou shalt inhale, Her gentle breath, whene'er she sighs, Shall fan thee with a purer gale. [But thou be grateful for that bliss For which in vain a thousand burn, And, as thou stealest sweets from her, Give back thy choicest in return.] '''Note:''' lines in square brackets not used in Callcott’s setting
