Inland six miles or seven from thence, a way Scales, with an easy rise, a pleasant hill;
Which myrtle, orange, cedar-tree, and bay, And other perfumed plants by thousands fill;
Thyme, marjoram, crocus, rose, and lily gay From odoriferous leaf such sweets distill, That they who sail the sea the fragrance bland, Scent in each genial gale which blows from land.
