«And now, when comes the calm mild day, as still such days will come,To call the squirrel and the bee from out their winter home;When the sound of dropping nuts is heard, though all the trees are still,And twinkle in the smoky light the waters of the rill,The south wind searches for the flowers whose fragrance late he bore,And sighs to find them in the wood and by the stream no more.»
«Awake, O north wind; and come, thou south; blow upon my garden, that the spices thereof may flow out. Let my beloved come into his garden, and eat his pleasant fruits.»

«And from thence we fetched a compass, and came to Rhegium: and after one day the south wind blew, and we came the next day to Puteoli: / Where we found brethren, and were desired to tarry with them seven days: and so we went toward Rome.»
«Our murder has been done three days ago,/ The frost is over and done, the south wind laughs, / And, to the very tiles of each red roof/ A-smoke i' the sunshine, Rome lies gold and glad.»
