   • Ah, sure no tasteful nook would be without them
     And let a lush laburnum oversweep them,
     And let long grass grow round the roots to keep them
     Moist, cool and green; and shade the violets
     That they may bind the moss in leafy nets.1817, John Keats, I stood tip-toe upon a little hill
