thyme
A plant of the genus Thymus. The common garden thyme is T. vulgaris, a native of southern Europe. It is a bushy under-shrub from 6 to 10 inches high, with many stems, which are erect or decumbent at the base, and bear very small ovate leaves. It is of a pungent, aromatic property, and is largely cultivated as a seasoning for soups, sauces, etc. From it also is distilled, especially in France, where the plant abounds, the oil of thyme, which is considerably used in veterinary practice and in perfumery, and in the latter use often passes as oil of origanum. The wild or creeping thyme, or mother-of-thyme, is T. Serpyllum, a less erect plant forming broad dense tufts, having properties similar to those of T. vulgaris, but less cultivated for culinary use. It also yields an oil, from one of the names of the plant sometimes called serpolet-oil. (See serpolet.) The lemon or lemon-scented thyme, sometimes named T. citriodorus, is regarded as a variety of this plant. Both species, especially variegated varieties of the latter, are desirable border or rockwork plants. -

Already paling star,
(The quail
Sings in the thyme afar!)
And richer, sweeter far,
The wild thyme wakes. The celandine
Looks at the morning star.
Among the springing thyme,
'Oh, peal upon our wedding,
And we will hear the chime,
And come to church in time.
And fresh as breath of mint and thyme!
Impulse of Spring, so new and true!
Essence of innocence and prime!
As the petrel loves the sea,
As the wild bee loves the thyme,
As the poet loves his rhyme,
As the blossom loves the dew --
But the angels loved thee, too!
With that pure native air.
Sometimes the sweetness of wild thyme
The strings of care
Did pluck; sometimes my soul was eased
With more than sweetness of wild thyme.
