The flower in the crannied wall he would leave there.

We think of Tennyson's "little flower in the crannied wall."

On the west, a perpendicular mole, crannied like an old ruin, lifts itself straight up toward the sky.

The proceedings are superintended by a contemplative tabby cat, coiled up in a niche, like a feline flower in a crannied wall.

Wordsworth's Daffodils, Burns's Daisy, Tennyson's "Flower in the Crannied Wall," these are but fair blooms in a full and dazzling cluster.
