I pray your Highness mark this curious herb: Touch it but lightly, stroke it softly, Sir, And it gives forth an odor sweet and rare; But crush it harshly and you'll make a scent Most disagreeable.

I plant lavender and saffron in a garden where I wish to grow old in its evergreen shrub of mint and stigmas of crocus.

I grow 10 heirloom varieties in my garden, but I get mine locally from Green Acres on Route 51 near Elizabeth. I just wish they had full slices of bread here so I could have a few tomato sandwiches and really enjoy the day.

The air was fragrant with a thousand trodden aromatic herbs, with fields of lavender, and with the brightest roses blushing in tufts all over the meadows. . . .

You say 'erbs, and we say Herbs because there's a f*****g H in it!
