    Now burgeons every maze of quick
    About the flowering squares, and thick
    By ashen roots the violets blow.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    I rise in the dawn, and I kneel and blow
    Till the seed of the fire flicker and glow;
    And then I must scrub and bake and sweep
    Till the stars are beginning to blink and peep;
    And the young lie long and dream in their bed....
