overgrown
Woman is an overgrown child that one amuses with toys, intoxicates with flattery, and seduces with promises. [ Mme. Sophie Arnould ]
There is the same difference between diligence and neglect, that there is between a garden curiously kept and the sluggard's field when it was all overgrown with nettles and thorns; the one is clothed with beauty and the gracious amiableness of content and cheering loveliness; while the other hath nothing but either little smarting pungencies or else such transpiercings as rankle the flesh within. [ Feltham ]
