Bold as the engineer who fells the wood,
And travelling often in the cut he makes,
Love not the flower they pluck, and know it not
And all their botany is Latin names.
The old men studied magic in the flowers.”

“‘What news, what news, my proud young porter,
What news, what news has thou brought to me?’”
