1 68 ANDREW MARVELL 



How well the skilful gardner drew 

 Of flow'rs and herbs this dial new ; 

 Where, from above, the milder sun 

 Does through a fragrant zodiack run, 

 And, as it works, th' industrious bee 

 Computes its time as well as we ! 

 How could such sweet and wholsome hours 

 Be reckon'd but with herbs and flow'rs !
