Poems by George Herbert
The Forerunners
... And wilt thou leave the Church, and love a stie ...
H. Baptism II
... My soul bid nothing, but preserve her wealth: ...
The Flower
... Off'ring at heav'n, growing and groaning thither: ...
Easter Song
... Though he give light, and th East perfume, ...
The Thanksgiving
... Thy art of love, which I'll turn back on thee, ...
Prayer
... Church-bels beyond the starres heard, the souls bloud, ...
Sin's Round
... They vent their wares, and pass them with their faults, ...
The Quip
... " said he, "I heard in music you had skill ...
Denial
... As to benumb Both knees and heart, in crying night and day, ...
The Elixir
... Which with his tincture--"for Thy sake"-- ...
H. Baptism
... Which is above the heav'ns, whose spring and rest ...
Discipline
... For with love Stony hearts will bleed ...
Church Music
... You took me thence, and in your house of pleasure ...
The Agony
... Fathom'd the depths of the seas, of states, and kings, ...
Lent
... It's true, we cannot reach Christ's forti'eth day ...
