Robert Herrick (Роберт Геррик (Херрик))

How Pansies or Hearts-Ease Came First

Frolic virgins once these were,
Overloving, living here;
Being here their ends denied
Ran for sweet-hearts mad, and died.
Love, in pity of their tears,
And their loss in blooming years,
For their restless here-spent hours,
Gave them hearts-ease turn'd to flowers.

3. The Lily in a Crystal
4. To a Gentlewoman, Objecting to Him His Gray Hairs
5. To the Water-Nymphs Drinking at the Fountain
