“Song

Oh roses for the ush of youth, And laurel for the perfect prime;°
But pluck an ivy branch for me° Grown old before my time.
Oh violets for the grave of youth,
And bay for those dead in their prime;
Give me the withered leaves
I chose Before in the old time.”
Christina Rossetti, Christina Rossetti
