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. The Succession of the Four Sweet Months
2. Four Things Make Us Happy Here
3. Upon the Detracter
4. Love, What It Is
5. Casualties
