Tell him, he wears the rose
Of youth upon him.

I sometimes think that never blows so red
The Rose as where some buried Caesar bled;
That every Hyacinth the Garden wears
Dropt in her Lap from some once lovely Head.Omar Khayyam
Reflect, ere you spurn me, that youth at his sides
Wears wings; and once gone, all pursuit he derides.Theocritus
A rose is a rose is a rose is a rose said my old friend Gertrude Stein.
Gertrude Stein
Yet Ah, that Spring should vanish with the Rose!
That Youth's sweet-scented manuscript should close!
The Nightingale that in the branches sang,
Ah, whence, and whither flown again, who knows!Omar Khayyam
Lan told me once that Malkier lives so long as one man wears the hadori in pledge that he will fight the Shadow, so long as one woman wears the ki'sain in pledge that she will send her sons to fight the shadow. I wear the ki'sain, Master Aldragoran. My husband wears the hadori. So do you. Will Lan Mandragoran ride to the last battle alone?
