Canto

1    10|    decline,~Upon its widowed stalk the blossom dies,~Subject
2    14| stubble-land,~Short time the stalk endures, or stridulous reed,~
3    16|   customs were the two,~Like stalk and flower: for that in
4    26|     crowned;~And, cleft like stalk, his head on earth had laid,~
5    30| bruises branch and leaf, and stalk and stubble,~And cheats
6    44|   vest, whereon~With all its stalk in silk and gold was spied~
