TO GOD (12) by ROBERT HERRICK

Poet Analysis

First Line: GOD'S UNDIVIDED, ONE IN PERSONS THREE
Last Line: TIS BUT BY ORDER, NOT BY ENTITIE.
Subject(s): GOD;
God's undivided, One in Persons Three;
And Three in Inconfused Unity:
Originall of Essence there is none
'Twixt God the Father, Holy Ghost, and Sonne:
And though the Father be the first of Three,
'Tis but by Order, not by Entitie.
