King Lear Act 4,
scene five CORDELIA:
Alack, ‘tis he! Why, he was met even now
As mad as the vexed sea, singing aloud,
Crowned with rank fumiter and furrow-weeds,
With hardokes, hemlock, nettles, cuckoo-flowers,
Darnel, and the idle weeds that grow
In our sustaining corn (IV.v.1-6)
Fumiter: fumitory
Furrow-weeds:
William Shakespeare
