and elegies on brambles
Ah, what a life were this! how sweet! how lovely!
Gives not the hawthorn bush a sweeter shade
To shepherds looking on their silly sheep,
Than doth a rich embroider'd canopy
To kings that fear their subjects' treachery?
(King Henry VI Part III, Act 2, Scene 5)
ROSALIND
No, I will not cast away my physic
but on those that are sick.
There is a man haunts the forest,
that abuses our young plants with carving
'Rosalind' on their barks;
hangs odes upon hawthorns and elegies on brambles,
(As You Like It, Act 3, Scene 2)
