What is this paragraph saying ?? It seems wonderful that so frail and lovely a plant has such power over human hearts. This Calypso meeting happened some forty-five years ago, and it was more memorable and impressive than any of my meetings with human beings excepting, perhaps, Emerson and one or two others. When I was leaving the University, Professor J.D. Butler said,"John, I would like to know what becomes o you, and I wish you would write me, say once a year, so I may keep you in sight." I wrote to the Professor, telling him about this meeting with Calypso, and he sent the letter to an Eastern newspaper [The Boston Recorder ] with some comments of his own. These, as far as I know, were the first of my words that appeared in print.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

"It seems wonderful that so frail and lovely a plant has such power over human hearts." is probly symbolizing a Rose which is the "flower of love"
