St Valentine's Day.

•   It is a very sentimental unofficial
  holiday, which is celebrated on the 14th February
  by those who believe in love and friendship. Boys
  and girls, husbands and wives, just friends send
  nice cards to each other with warm greetings on
  the day. No one can trace origin of this European
  tradition, but the legend tells us a story of an
  Italian monk Valentine who helped young people to
  marry breaching thus the ruler's law. St
  Valentine was executed but people still remember
  him and celebrate this saint's day as a day of
  love.  The best presents are small trifles,
  chocolates and greeting cards.

• Thus mellowd to that tender light
• Which heaven and gaudy day denies
