UPON HIS VERSES by ROBERT HERRICK

Poet Analysis

First Line: WHAT OFF-SPRING OTHER MEN HAVE GOT
Last Line: AND NO VERSE ILLEGITIMATE.
Subject(s): POETRY & POETS;

What off-spring other men have got,
The how, where, when, I question not.
These are the Children I have left;
Adopted some; none got by theft.
But all are toucht (like lawfull plate)
And no Verse illegitimate.
