Verdant

Speaking of someone, somewhat badly, when beside the still waters, I know not, what sort of chap, yet these words, sadly, were my neighbour's daughter's... “Altho' neither sleepy, nor needing a nap, but, as it's always greener on the other side, and yet, despite my impassioned pleas, he makes me to lie down in green pastures, where I gather grass stains on my knees.”
