Around the fragrant circlet, PEACE twines her olive spray, And with sweet words of blessing, Crowneth the lovely May. As falls the graceful coronal Sweet sounds of pleasant melody Touched by fair Cambrian fingers, Gaily the harp notes ring, Telling the listening nations, PEACE crowns the Queen of Spring. E. B. P.
