    Reflaring rosabel.
    The fragrant camomel;

    The pretty strawberry;
    The columbine, the nept,
    The jelofer well set,
    The proper violet:”

    “Spring’s an expansive time: yet I don’t trust
    March with its peck of dust,
    Nor April with its rainbow-crowned brief showers,
    Nor even May, whose flowers
    One frost may wither thro’ the sunless hours.”
    —Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)
