If this sounds a little RVW-y in parts it’s likely because Ralph Vaughan Williams and Gustav Holst were besties who influenced each other. Here’s a really cool 2017 BBC documentary about their friendship and their works (https://youtu.be/azkV3iZJzFQ?si=hH4DbIbY_azGJwdW) A book about their friendship featuring their letters “Heirs and Rebels” can be read for free here (https://archive.org/details/heirsrebelslette0000gust)

With rue my heart is laden
For golden friends I had,
For many a rose-lipt maiden
And many a lightfoot lad.By brooks too broad for leaping
The lightfoot boys are laid;
The rose-lipt girls are sleeping
In fields where roses fade.https://www.liederabend.cat/bloc/entrades/1313-the-same-poem-one-more-song-iv
