Be quince and box-wood overlaid
with the scented bark of yew.
That all the wood in blossoming,
May calm her heart and cool her blood
For losing of her maidenhood.”

into our flesh our

At the sophist schools, and the learned clan;
For what are they all, in their high conceit,
When man in the bush with God may meet?”
