THISTLEDOWN: 5 by CORA RANDALL FABBRI

First Line: DO YOU REMEMBER, LONG AGO
Last Line: WITH CHAINS I CANNOT BREAK SO SOON AS YOU.
Do you remember, long ago,
When as a child you bound me fast
With daisy-chains, and would not let me go?

O daisies, you are dead, 'tis true,
But still I'm bound as fast to-day,
With chains I cannot break so soon as you.
