Summary
Thou, sun, art half as happy as we,
In that the world's contracted thus,
Thine age asks ease, and since thy duties be
To warm the world, that's done in warming us.
Shine here to us, and thou art everywhere;
This bed thy center is, these walls, thy sphere.Father Horne finds that his impressionability leaves him defenceless to the attentions of Mr Davies.
Title and extract from John Donne's poem of the same name.

Summary
“It takes time,” Roisin said, and Greg glanced over at her, confused. “Hanahaki. You don’t just develop it overnight.”
“No,” Greg agreed.
Roisin hesitated. “Takes about ten years, yeah?” she asked, and Greg knew she was doing mental maths to figure out just who had come into Greg’s life ten or so years ago that would be causing him to cough up flowers native to the Chiltern Hills.
Well. He doubted she realised the latter part, having not had the time he’d had to google image search all the various flowers he’d been hacking up or learn that the stupid purple one which made the most frequent appearance was the fucking county flower of Buckinghamshire.
