Oh, a dainty plant is the ivy green, That creepeth o'er ruins old Of right choice food are his meals, I ween, In his cell so lone and cold. Creeping where no life is seen, A rare old plant is the ivy green. (Charles Dickens)

Oh, a dainty plant is the ivy green, That creepeth o'er ruins old Of right choice food are his meals, I ween, In his cell so lone and cold. Creeping where no life is seen, A rare old plant is the ivy green.
