HIS WISH (2) by ROBERT HERRICK

Poet Analysis

First Line: FAT BE MY HINDE; UNLEARNED BE MY WIFE
Last Line: SINGING ABOUT MY EVERLASTING FIRE.

Fat be my Hinde; unlearned be my wife;
Peacefull by night; my day devoid of strife:
To these a comely off-spring I desire,
Singing about my everlasting fire.
