Hawthorn buds

Merry Wives of Windsor, [3.3.61-67]. Falstaff. “What made me love thee? Let that persuade thee there’s something extraordinary in thee. Come, I cannot cog and say thou art this and that, like a many of these lisping hawthorn buds, that come like women in men’s apparel, and smell like Bucklersbury in simple time. I cannot. But I love thee, none but thee; and thou deserv’st it.”
