Burdock.

This is known by its coarse, broad leaf, and round, bur like blossom.

Importunity.

Of thy teasings and pleadings
I'm heartily sick;
I'm sure if I loved thee
I'd tell thee so quick.

What use or advantage
In wooing like this?
When a woman says "No!"
Do you think she means "Yes!"

The longer thou suest
The colder I grow;
There-take my last answer;
Canst hear it? 'Tis-No!
