Samuel Johnson's Dictionary

  1. Honey-sucklenoun

    caprisolium, Latin. Woodbine. It hath a climbing stalk, which twists itself about whatsoever tree stands near it: the flowers are tubulous and oblong, consisting of one leaf, which opens towards the top, and is divided into two lips; the uppermost of which is subdivided into two, and the lowermost is cut into many segments: the tube of the flowers is bent, somewhat resembling a huntsman’s horn. They are produced in clusters, and are very sweet. Miller enumerates ten species, of which three grow wild in our hedges.

    Bid her steal into the pleached bower,
    Where honey-suckles, ripen’d by the sun,
    Forbid the sun to enter; like to favourites,
    Made proud by princes, that advance their pride
    Against the power that bred it. William Shakespeare.

    Watch upon a bank
    With ivy canopied, and interwove
    With flaunting honeysuckle. John Milton.

    Then melfoil beat, and honey-suckles pound;
    With these alluring savours strew the ground. John Dryden, Virgil.
