"'And here she paused in her gracious talk To point me a moth on the milk-white phlox." "Don't you remember, in the 'Garden Fancies?" But Miss Vesta did not remember. Didn't she know Browning? She confessed that she did not. She had fancied that he was not quite she hardly thought that ladies did read his works to any extent.
I wish I knew where her grave is that I might lay upon it a bunch of flowers, such as she knew and liked sweet-william, and phlox, and larkspur, and wild columbine.
Following it with her eye roused her. A few whiffs of the raw, strong scent of phlox invigorated her. She passed along the path, hesitating at the white rose-bush. It smelled sweet and simple.

And we had banks of calliopsis and sunflowers the small sunflowers of Kansas, that bloom a hundred or more to a stalk and tall phlox whose fragrance carries one back to some far, forgotten childhood.
