A
WISH

 
 
 
 
 

flowers, with words:
JOY ATTEND THEE

 
TO THEE I'D BREATHE
A WISH THAT THOU
MIGHT'ST SPEND THY
LIFE IN LOVE AND
PEACE:
MAY CARE'S CHILL
HAND NE'ER TOUCH
THY BROW,
BUT
AGE SHED JOYS AS
YEARS INCREASE!
AND I WOULD WISH
THAT VISIONS FAIR
MIGHT EVER GILD
THY THOUGHTS
OF ME,
THAT THOU MAY'ST
SOMETIMES
BREATHE A PRAYER
FOR ONE
WHO EVER THINKS
OF THEE.

As can be seen, this bookmark is still attached to the stiff backing paper, with the printed STEVENS logo.
Apart from the pagination of the title, this bookmark is identical to the Stevens A Wish / (flowers with words: Joy attend thee) / To thee I'd breathe [see sb331 in this site].
