TO PERENNA (1) by ROBERT HERRICK

Poet Analysis

First Line: WHEN I THY PARTS RUNNE O'ER, I CAN'T ESPIE
Last Line: THER'S STILL MORE CAUSE, WHY I THE MORE SHOULD LOVE.
Subject(s): LOVE;

When I thy Parts runne o'er, I can't espie
In any one, the least indecencie:
But every Line, and Limb diffused thence,
A faire, and unfamiliar excellence:
So, that the more I look, the more I prove,
Ther's still more cause, why I the more should love.
