• There has fallen a splendid tear
  From the passion-flower at the gate.
  She is coming, my dove, my dear;
  She is coming, my life, my fate;
  The red rose cries, "She is near, she is near;"
  And the white rose weeps, "She is late;"
  The larkspur listens, "I hear; I hear;"
  And the lily whispers, "I wait."

  Alfred Lord Tennyson

  to consider the lilies in the field.
