Description: Handwritten valentine on superfine paper in blue ink. In three verses with the first letter of the first verse embellished with delicate flowers and leaves (principally in blue) which trail down the paper and enclose the top and bottom sides. '1. If life for me hath joy or light/'Tis all for thee,/My thoughts by day, my dreams by night,/Are but of thee, of only thee./Whate'er of hope or peace I know,/My zest in joy, my balm in woe,/To those dear eyes of thine I owe,/'Tis all from thee. 2. My heart, ev'n ere I saw those eyes,/Seem'd doom'd to thee;/Kept pure till then from other ties,/'Twas all for thee, for only thee./Like plants that sleep, till sunny May/Calls forth their life,/my spirit lay,/Till, touch'd by Love's awak'ning ray,/It liv'd for thee, it liv'd for thee. 3. When Fame would call me to her heights,/She speaks by thee;/And dim would shine her proudest lights,/Unshar'd by thee, unshar'd by thee./Whene'er I seek great Honour's shrine,/Where men have hung their wreaths divine,/And wish those wreaths of glory mine,/'Tis all for thee, for only thee.'
