HIS DESIRE, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: Give me a man that is not dull
Last Line: Tickling the citterne with his quill.


Give me a man that is not dull,
When all the world with rifts is full:
But unamaz'd dares clearely sing,
When as the roof's a tottering:
And, though it falls, continues still
Tickling the Citterne with his quill.
