LINDEN
[ Also see Trees ]

The linden, in the fervors of July,
  Hums with a louder concert. When the wind
    Sweeps the broad forest in its summer prime,
      As when some master-hand exulting sweeps
        The keys of some great organ, ye give forth
          The music of the woodland depths, a hymn
            Of gladness and of thanks.
      - William Cullen Bryant, Among the Trees
         (l. 62)

If thou lookest on the lime-leaf,
  Thou a heart's form will discover;
    Therefore are the lindens ever
      Chosen seats of each fond lover.
      - Heinrich Heine, Book of Songs--New Spring
         (no. 31, st. 3)
