Then he disemboweled it, and took off its wings; and finally he threw all the pieces into the brush.

Full many a gem of purest ray serene. The dark unfathomed caves of ocean bear: Full many a flower is born to blush unseen. And waste its sweetness on the desert air"A good many flowers bloom and fade away in deserted places, seen by no one.

Like a precious stone unmined at the bottom of the ocean or a beautiful flower blooming in... Thomas Gray
