here. All over I grow most tall

you call at the madhouse, an oracular

Fallen from the tree
That’s to grow the wood,
That’s to make the cradle,
That’s to rock the bairn,
That’s to grow a man,
That’s to lay me.”
—Unknown. The Cauld Lad of Hilton or, The Wandering Spectre (l. 2–8)

“Too rare, too rare, grow now my visits here,
But once I knew each field, each flower, each stick;”
