A person discontented with the world, seeks, in the same place, retirement from its cares and disappointments. The Flowers tell of love and duty ; and the Recluse— learnin<? that, to fill well the station allotted by Providence, is to be happy— resolves to return again to usefulness and contentment among her fellow creatures.
