splendid adj. magnificent; very impressive
There has fallen a splendid tear
From the passion -flower at the gate.
She is coming, my dove, my dear;
She is coming, my life, my fate;
The red rose cries, “She is near, she is near,”
And the white rose weeps, “She is late,”
The larkspur listens, “I hear, I hear,”
And the lily whispers, “I wait.”
