The Lily And The Bee, Part II (Patreon)

The lily stands for beauty,Use, purity, and trust,It does a four-fold duty,As all good mortals must.Its whiteness is to teach us,Its faith to set us free,Its beauty is to cheer us,And its wealth is for the bee.

“Consider the lilies!”But, it occurs to me,Does any one considerThe lily and the bee?
