A. E. Housman — It nods and curtseys and recovers

                  XVI          It nods and curtseys and recovers          When the wind blows above, The nettle on the graves of lovers          That hanged themselves for love. The nettle nods, the wind blows over,          The man, he does not move, The lover of the grave, the lover          That hanged himself for love.
