Verse

Sambucus,-We discern thy crew,
As snuffling, wheezing, croupy, blue.
Though somneolent, yet cannot rest,
Awaking in the night oppressed.
Prostrated with a sweating drain,
That during sleep goes off again.
Thy feet are cold, thy face is hot,
And trembling restlessness thy lot.
Like Rhus, thou feelest worse by rest,
Thus during motion feeling best.
