One of those crossword perennials for "ever"

my mum and I thank you!!

Should really be "e'er", a contraction of ever, often used poetically.

I had a look and found several examples - I liked this one:

SHOULD E'ER THE LOVELESS DAY (Johann Wolfgang von Goethe)

Should e'er the loveless day remain
Obscured by storms of hail and rain,

Thy charms thou showest never;
I tap at window, tap at door:
Come, lov'd one, come! appear once more!

Thou art as fair as ever!

As we are in lyrical mood,I offer the following cautionary ode.

Eye halve a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques for my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea

Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it to say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait a weigh

As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee four two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rare lea ever wrong

Eye have run this poem threw it
Am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect awl the weigh
My chequer tolled me sew
