It isn't Thomas Hardy - he never fired a gun in anger in his life (he considered himself "above" those things like patriotism or duty, because he was too busy being mean and melancholy and getting depressed when they said he couldn't marry his cousin and his books were immoral.... Besides, it's too short, Hardy would never use one word where 26 would do.....).

Anyone got the words for 'There were roses'?
