I CALL AND I CALL by ROBERT HERRICK

Poet Analysis

First Line: I CALL, I CALL, WHO DO YE CALL?
Last Line: SPEAK BUT THE WORD, AND ILE TAKE YOU.
I call, I call, who doe ye call?
The Maids to catch this Cowslip-ball:
But since these Cowslips fading be,
Troth, leave the flowers, and Maids, take me.
Yet, if that neither you will doe,
Speak but the word, and Ile take you.
