Poem by Robert Herrick

To Silvia

Pardon my trespass, Silvia! I confess
My kiss out-went the bounds of shamefacedness:—
None is discreet at all times; no, not Jove
Himself, at one time, can be wise and love.

1. His Last Request to Julia
2. To Sapho
3. To Anthea (Anthea, I am going hence)
4. The Rock of Rubies, and the Quarry of Pearls
5. Upon Julia's Ribbon
