Poem by Robert Herrick

Discontents in Devon

MORE discontents I never had
  Since I was born then here,
Where I have been, and still am sad,
  In this dull Devonshire.
Yet justly too I must confesse,
  I ne’r invented such
Ennobled numbers for the presse,
  Then where I loath’d so much.

1. Felicity Quick of Flight
2. Upon Tears
3. Upon a Painted Gentlewoman
4. Purposes
5. The Heart
