Anyone who wants to harvest dandelions for eating or drinking is welcome to come and take them from my lawn, anytime! Hey, I'll even throw in all the dock leaves you can eat, and any nettles you can find!

Ain't changed much, have they?

And, don't try taking any of mine. They will all be saturated with weed killer.

I believe that dock leaves are a remedy for the sting of a nettle, so if you can get any takers on the one, you shan't need t'other.

Nettle is a good word, as is shan't, as is t'other.
