JESSICA

Make thy name a word of beauty, Like the lily pure and fair, From its perfumed cup exhaling Sweetest fragrance on the air.

Make thy name a word of beauty, Lustrous as the ocean pearl; Constant in life's loving service, Guileless through youth's mazy whirl.

Make thy name a word of beauty, Radiant, steadfast, like a star; Shedding from a glowing center Love's effulgence near and far.

Aye, we greet thee, rare-sweet maiden, (Make it evermore thy right), Jessica—our word of beauty, Lily, pearl, and star of light.
