See, in Chaucer and the elder Poets, the honours for merly paid to this flower. II. A WHIRL-BLAST from behind the hill And showers of hailstones pattered round. Of tallest hollies, tall and green; year But see! where'er the hailstones drop, Along the floor, beneath the shade Some Robin Good-fellow were there, III.

Wait and shall see how hollow? you Its endeavouring! |
