Description:Excerpt from Sources and Analogues of "the Flower and the Leaf" A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculties of the Graduate Schools of Arts, Literature, and Science in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, (Department of English)Very early on a May morning, when the spring growth is at its height, the poet, represented as a woman to whom sleep is ful unmete, goes forth to a pleasant grove of oaks set out at regular intervals. With joy she hears the birds sing, and listens especially, though at first in vain, for the nightingale. Soon she finds a narrow path, overgrown with grass and weeds, which leads to a pleasant herber, terraced with fresh grass and surrounded by a hedge of sycamore and sweet-scented eglantine. This hedge is so thick that anyone outside cannot see in, though one inside can see out. Beside the arbor is a beautiful medlar tree, in which a goldfinch leaps from bough to bough, eating buds and blossoms and singing merrily. Opposite this is a laurel tree, which gives out healing odors like the eglantine, and within whose branches a nightingale sings even more ravishingly than the goldfinch. The poet is delighted with the spot, which seems like an earthly para dise, and sits down on the grass to listen to the birds.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
