NIGHT-BLOOM, PUNAHOU, by                    
First Line: O do you know
Last Line: O punahou!


O do you know
That stone wall in its green by day,
By night a cloud, a milky way
Not stars, but like the broidered grace
Of flowers that weave a scarf of lace
Apart, apart from glare of day?
Thou hast indeed a wondrous lei,
O Punahou!
