“EVE’S LAMENT” 
O Flowers 
That never will in other climate grow, 
My early visitation, and my last 
At even, which I bred up with tender hand, 
From the first opening bud, and gave ye names 
Who now, shall rear ye to the sun, or rank 
Your tribes, and water from the ambrosial fount? 
—MILTON in “Paradise Lost”.
