“Now, Now The Mirth Comes” Wild I am now with heat; O Bacchus! coole thy Raies! Or frantick I shall eate Thy Thyrse, and bite the Bayes. Round, round, the roof do's run; And being ravisht thus, Come, I will drink a Tun To my Propertius. Now, to Tibullus, next, This flood I drink to thee: But stay; I see a Text, That this presents to me. Behold, Tibullus lies Here burnt, whose smal return Of ashes, scarce suffice To fill a little Urne. Trust to good Verses then; They onely will aspire, When Pyramids, as men, Are lost, i'th'funerall fire. And when all Bodies meet In Lethe to be drown'd; Then onely Numbers sweet, With endless life are crown'd. Note: This poem is included due to its similarity to the poem that begins: “Now, Now The Mirth Comes.” Page 66 of 72
Christmas Poetry By Robert Herrick The Two Following are included for the sole reason of the reflection I see in my mirror each morning: To a Gentlewoman objecting to him his gray haires. Am I despis'd, because you say, And I dare sweare, that I am gray? Know, Lady, you have but your day: And time will come when you shall weare Such frost and snow upon your haire: And when (though long it comes to passe) You question with your Looking-glasse; And in that sincere Christall seek, But find no Rose-bud in your cheek: Nor any bed to give the shew Where such a rare Carnation grew. Ah! then too late, close in your chamber keeping, It will be told That you are old; By those true teares y'are weeping. Upon his gray haires. Fly me not, though I be gray, Lady, this I know you'l say; Better look the Roses red, When with white commingled. Black your haires are; mine are white; This begets the more delight, When things meet most opposite: As in Pictures we descry, Venus standing Vulcan by. Page 67 of 72
