Layers of decorative paper, the outer one with deckle edging and folded corners, is hand-lettered in gold ink with the words "Affectionate Regards." Blue and white twisted silk cording surrounds a layer printed with gilt branching. The small onlaid booklet contains a broken-hearted love poem. The last verse reads, "Had we ne'er met sae kingly Had we never loved sae blindly, Never met, or never parted, We had ne'er been broken-hearted.".
