TO THE WATER NYMPHS DRINKING AT THE FOUNTAIN, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: Reach with your whiter hands to me
Last Line: The water turn'd to wine.
Subject(s): Nymphs


1. Reach, with your whiter hands, to me,
Some Christall of the Spring;
And I, about the Cup shall see
Fresh Lillies flourishing.

2. Or else sweet Nimphs do you but this;
To'th' Glasse your lips encline;
And I shall see by that one kisse,
The Water turn'd to Wine.
