LYRICK FOR LEGACIES by ROBERT HERRICK

Poet Analysis

First Line: GOLD I'VE NONE, FOR USE OR SHOW
Last Line: AS MY LAST REMEMBRANCES.
Subject(s): LANGUAGE; WORDS; VOCABULARY;
Gold I've none, for use or show,
Neither Silver to bestow
At my death; but thus much know,
That each Lyrick here shall be
Of my love a Legacie,
Left to all posterity.
Gentle friends, then doe but please,
to accept such coynes as these;
As my last Remembrances.
