"We envy no monarch his glittering crown,
But think ourselves happier far.
There's no place so pleasant as nature's green bow'rs,
And a crown's not as sweet as a garland of flowers."(A. Cowley in How delightful's the life of an innocent ...)Flemalle (B)
“Time passes slowly up here in the daylight We stare straight ahead and try so hard to stay right Like the red rose of summer that blooms in the day Time passes slowly and fades away.”
