THE GOOD NIGHT OR BLESSING, by ROBERT HERRICK Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Blessings, in abundance come Last Line: On ye both; goodnight to all. | ||||||||
Blessings, in abundance come, To the Bride, and to her Groome; May the Bed, and this short night, Know the fulness of delight! Pleasures, many here attend ye, And ere long, a Boy Love send ye Curld and comely, and so trimme, Maides (in time) may ravish him. Thus a dew of Graces fall On ye both; Goodnight to all. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A MEDITATION FOR HIS MISTRESS by ROBERT HERRICK A TERNARIE OF LITTLES, UPON A PIPKIN OF JELLIE by ROBERT HERRICK A THANKSGIVING TO GOD [FOR HIS HOUSE] by ROBERT HERRICK ANOTHER GRACE FOR A CHILD by ROBERT HERRICK ART ABOVE NATURE: TO JULIA by ROBERT HERRICK CEREMONIES FOR CANDLEMASSE EVE by ROBERT HERRICK CEREMONIES FOR CHRISTMAS (1) by ROBERT HERRICK CLOTHES DO BUT CHEAT AND COZEN US by ROBERT HERRICK COMFORT [TO A YOUTH THAT HAD LOST HIS LOVE] by ROBERT HERRICK |
