278 S.corus ®alamu5. 
Of wall-flower slips and roots I've got 
So many, that I'm fain, 
Bear as they are to me, to turn 
Many adrift again. 
My ivy-plant from Tintern's braved 
Four winters' stormy weather ; 
I've scraps, too, from proud Kenilworth, 
And here they grow together. 
The feathery seeds of clematis 
In Goodrich I have caught ; 
Hartstongue from Ragland's lofty keep, 
With maiden-hair, I brought. 
And so at Claremont, where the crowd 
Of rhododendrons grew, 
My whims were humoured, and I novr 
Am rearing one or two. 
And e'en those little things can bring 
Before me, passing well, 
The very nook where the scented leaves 
Of the graceful calamus dwell.
