Jagged Boughs Of The Pine Tree In My View Are All Askew. One Side Reaches Into Upper Air, And The Other Side Just Hangs There. The Slender Trunk In Particular Tilts From The Perpendicular To Rock At About Eleven O’clock. Some Day, A Sudden Wind May Increase The Sway And Take It, Break It Down And That Would Be Sad.

Listen, Ophelia, Don’t Do It. This Hamlet Guy Has Put You Through It, But Still, Exercise Your Will. Cast Away That Rosemary, And He Won’t Fancy Your Pretty Pansy.
