Poem by Robert Herrick

On a Perfumed Lady

You say you're sweet: how should we know
Whether that you be sweet or no?
-From powders and perfumes keep free;
Then we shall smell how sweet you be! 

1. Wlt Punished Prospers Most
2. To Enjoy the Time
3. No Pains, No Gains
4. Upon Wrinkles
5. Upon Tears
