BEGINNINGS AND ENDINGS by ROBERT HERRICK

Poet Analysis

First Line: PAUL, HE BEGAN ILL, BUT HE ENDED WELL
Last Line: MUCH AS THE ENDS ARE TO BE LOOKT UNTO.

Paul, he began ill, but he ended well;
Judas began well, but he foulely fell:
In godlinesse, not the beginnings, so
Much as the ends are to be lookt unto.
