Stinging Nettle -- The Most Nutritious Plant On Earth?

A poem by Aaron Hill


 

Tender-handed stroke a nettle,
And it stings you for your pains;
Grasp it like a man of mettle,
And it soft as silk remains.

Tis the same with common natures:
Use 'em kindly, they rebel;
But be rough as nutmeg-graters,
And the rogues obey you well.

So only the very young leafs are good to be used without sting needles -- right?

Would we mind if Nettles sting us all?

I wouldn't mind, it keeps us wealthy and bond
