        Take heed to hide them, and dig in withal
        Rough shells or porous stone, for therebetween
        Will water trickle and fine vapour creep,
        And so the plants their drooping spirits raise.
        Aye, and there have been, who with weight of stone
        Or heavy potsherd press them from above;
        This serves for shield in pelting showers, and this
        When the hot dog-star chaps the fields with drought.
