And you don't know what these flowers mean?
Let me tell you.

A maiden stands in the dawn.
Her feet are on the moon and the stars circle round her head.

And under her foot she crushes the head of the serpent who betrayed our first parents in Paradise.

And see, Spring courts the maiden and brings her his roses.

And Winter, too, courts the maiden, and because he has no other flowers he makes these to grow on the surface of the water and on the window-panes.
