ALL that doth flow we cannot liquid name, Or else would fire and water be the same; But that is liquid which is moist and wet; Fire that propriety can never get: Then 'tis not cold that doth the fire put out, But 'tis the wet that makes it die, no doubt. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...EPISTLE TO MR.
