Flower Poem HomeworkBy Ollie Ayers

William Shakespeare

A Midsummer Night's Dream

I know a bank where the wild thyme blows,

Where oxlips and the nodding violet grows,

Quite over-canopied with luscious woodbine,

With sweet musk-roses and with eglantine: 

There sleeps Titania sometime of the night,

Lull'd in these flowers with dances and delight;

And there the snake throws her enamell’d skin

Weed wide enough to wrap a fairy in.
