THE SKAITH OF GUILLARDUN: 91, by                    
First Line: This fragrant herb it forced upon the tongue
Last Line: Between her rival's lips the lady set.
Alternate Author Name(s): Cayzer, Charles
Subject(s): Flowers; Love


This fragrant herb it forced upon the tongue
Of its drowsed love, which rathly did revive
And perkily upon her helpmate hung:
He capers in high joy to see her live.
Athwart the forest aisles they blithely sprung,
Discarding the fair flower of Love's reprieve.
A petal of that rosy amulet
Between her rival's lips the lady set.
