Geoffrey Chaucer: The Canterbury Tales (English Edition)

"Our Hoste saw well that the brighte sun

Th' arc of his artificial day had run

The fourthe part, and half an houre more;

And, though he were not deep expert in lore,

He wist it was the eight-and-twenty day

Of April, that is messenger to May;

And saw well that the shadow of every tree

Was in its length of the same quantity

That was the body erect that caused it;

And therefore by the shadow he took his wit."
