Poems by George Herbert
A True Hymne
... As when th' heart sayes (sighing to be approved) ...
To Be Alone
... And tumble up and down what thou findst there, ...
Constancie
... To writhe his limbes, and share, not mend the ill ...
Love Unknown
... I found that some had stuff'd the bed with thoughts, ...
Heaven
... Joy. But are there cares and businesse with the pleasure ...
Obedience
... Yet since thou canst not choose but see my actions ...
The Twenty-Third Psalme
... Then to the streams that gently passe: ...
Submission
... How know I, if thou shouldst me raise, ...
Dooms-Day
... Each one whispering, Live you, brother ...
Vanitie (II)
... And write for sweet, prove a most sowre displeasure ...
Colossians iii. 3. "Our Life Is Hid With Christ In God"
... My words and thoughts do both expresse this notion, ...
Employment
... only I Neither bring hony with the bees, ...
Prayer (I)
... Church-bells beyond the stars heard, the soul's blood, ...
The Affliction (I)
... To fruit or shade: at least some bird would trust ...
Sin (I)
... Without, our shame, within, our consciences, ...
