Love is like the wild rose-briar,


Friendship like the holly-tree — 3) Read the first two lines and
The holly is dark when the rose-briar blooms imagine the characteristics
But which will bloom most constantly? associated with the rose-briar
and the holly-tree.
The wild rose-briar is sweet in spring,
Its summer blossoms scent the air ;
Yet wait till winter comes again
And who will call the wild-briar ?

Then scorns the silly rose-wreath now


And deck thee with the holly's sheen,
That when December blights thy brow
He still may leave thy garland green. 4) Read the rest of the poem
and list the qualities of the rose-
Emily Brontë, 1846 briar and the holly-tree.
(you can underline with two colours)

5) Explain the comparison between summer and winter.

6) Conclude on the poet’s preference.
