The Turtle Love.
335 THE TUKTLE DOVE. (Columba turtur. ) " Go, beautiful and gentle Dove, And greet the morning ray ; For lo ! the sun shines bright above, And the rain is pass'd away. " BOWLES.

The male or female is so much attached to its respective mate that it is said, perhaps with more poetry than truth, that if one die the other will never surv
