Usage examples of "lycid".

But, far more grateful to thy pensive shade, Parental Fondness mourns her Lycid gone, Lycid!

The glowing violet, The musk-rose, and the well-attired woodbine, With cowslips wan that hang the pensive head, And every flower that sad embroidery wears: Bid amaranthus all his beauty shed, And daffodillies fill their cups with tears To strew the laureate hearse where Lycid lies.
