Poem by Robert Herrick

Grace for a Child

Here, a little child, I stand,
Heaving up my either hand:
Cold as paddocks though they be,
Here I lift them up to thee,
For a benison to fall
On our meat, and on us all.
Amen. 

1. To Daisies, Not to Shut so Soon
2. Upon Mrs Eliz. Wheeler, under the Name of Amarillis
3. Lovers How They Come and Part
4. To Carnations: a Song
5. The Lily in a Crystal
