For a Copy of Herrick
Many days have come and gone,
Many suns have set and shone,
H ERRICK , since thou sang'st of Wake,
Morris-dance and Barley-break;—
Many men have ceased from care,
Many maidens have been fair,
Since thou sang'st of J ULIA'S eyes,
J ULIA'S lawns and tiffanies;—
Many things are past: but thou,
Golden -M OUTH , art singing now,
Singing clearly as of old,
And thy numbers are of gold!
